When I import sales data from 3 different companies, the dates are displayed in different formats within the same column
| ImportedDate | CompanyName | ActualDate |
| 1/3/2019 | US Company | Januar 3, 2019 |
| 1/3/2019 | Oz Company | March 1, 2019 |
| 1/3/2019 | EU Company | March 1, 2019 |
I can identify MMDD vs DDMM because of the CompanyName Field. I do also have a DateDIM, but couldn't quite figure out how to get one field for date that is standardized. I'd like to be able to use a slicer for date to compare product sales between all 3 companies. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Hi @croufspesi ,
Please see the video from 17:36 to 21:00 to understand issues with dates.
You need to adjust your Locale settings.

Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution! Appreciate with a Kudos!!
Think there must be something I"m still missing/not understanding. I did watch the video and completed those steps using the locale settings, but it just caused errors within the date column
