Create two separate calculated columns - one for the 24 hours format, and the other for the days format:
dax
DateTimeFormat = FORMAT('Table'[DateTime], "MM/DD/YYYY, hh:mm")
DateFormat = FORMAT('Table'[DateTime], "MM/DD/YYYY")Create a disconnected table with the two format options ("24 hours", "Days").
Create a measure that returns the appropriate format based on the selection in the disconnected table:
dax
SelectedFormat =
SWITCH(
SELECTEDVALUE('DisconnectedTable'[FormatOption]),
"24 hours", MAX('Table'[DateTimeFormat]),
"Days", MAX('Table'[DateFormat]),
BLANK()
)In this workaround, you would use the SelectedFormat measure in your report, and the user would select the format by using a slicer based on the disconnected table. The measure would return the date/time in the selected format.
This is just a workaround, not sure if we can do this dynamically by creating a measure.
Let me know how this shapes up in your model. Thanks
