unable to setup incremental refresh

I've tried to setup an incremental refresh but keep getting stuck at the same point. So far I have:

 

-created date/time parameters "RangeStart" and "RangeEnd"

-applied a custom filter to a date/time column in my table, using those parameters

-applied the changes

 

According to the instructions, the incremental refresh should now be available in the context menu for tables. However, when I select this, I keep getting the message that I need to setup the parameters. Any idea what might be going on?

 

I'm importing data from an Odata feed (Dynamics NAV).

    We have to keep the Parameter name as RangeStart and RangeEnd only.
    You can not use any other name for incremental refresh paramenters.

    Hi joris,

     

    How do you set the parameter?

     

    The RangeStart and RangeEnd parameters should be datefield date/time, not just Date. 

     

    You could note here.

     

     

    In addition, you could have a reference of this similar thread which has been solved.

     

    Best  Regards,

    Cherry

      v-piga-msft, I have my Parameters as Date/time and the column also as Date/Time
      but still getting same error as before you can set up incremental refresh on this table you need to set up parameters site:community.powerbi.com

      Custom is working fine but not able to setup the incremental load.
