Append queries error: Name is already used
Hi everyone!
I'm trying to append the tables 'Inventory' and 'Intransit'. These tables both have column "Date". When I clicked apply, this message shows up.
Shouldn't PowerBI append the data based on columns? When there are columns with the same name, it should be stacked on top of each other right?
The table "Product" doesn't even have a date column. Could someone tell me why I got this error and how to fix it?
Thank you!
- Yes, thats the conflict.
Date comes from Power Query and there is another definition as DAX Column.

Hi mwegener ,
My steps are as below:
Append Inventory 1010-1020; Inventory 1510-1610; Inventory 3010-3610 into Inventory
Append In transit 1010-1020; Intransit 1510-3010; In transit remaining into In-Transit
Then append Inventory and Intransit
