Hello, I'm completely new to Power Bi.
I have a column that should display the years in date format, however, they are in integer format.
When I try to change the column type to date, the year 2011 is changed to 3 July 1905.
How do I solve this problem? Because I need to create some measures using date formulas.
It depends. You can use the DATE(year, month, day) to convert integers to a date. Take a look at the docs here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/date-function-dax
I would recommend converting the integers to a date in Power Query, rather than doing it through DAX if possible though.
