Hi All,
I would like to add a custom column in query.I have shipping date in sales table - unfortunately original formt is text and day and month is otherway around.
So I wrote the following Custom column fomular like I did in table .. but it does not work in query.
"Expression.Error:The name'date' wasn't recognized. Make sure it'spelled correctly."
=date(year([Date]),DAY([Date]),MONTH([Date]))
What it went wrong?
All the best,
LoveParis
"day and month is otherway around" Can you show us a date exactly please?
Hi HotChilli,
Thank you for your message. It looks like this. The original data is stored as text and when I try to convert to date by Data Type, I get 6 Jan 2019 while it is supposed to be 1 Jun 2019. I want to add new column and amend it in query.
All the best,
LoveParis
Hi @paris ,
To try to match your issue, I created a table in Excel with date as a text field.
Then used PQ to bring it into PBI and it was brought in as a date field and formatted correctly.
So, I changed it back to a text field in the query.
And then changed it back to a date field. It formatted correctly.
It seems to be working as expected...can you provide us more detail?
Thanks,
