    Hi , Nickstad 

    For the main condition for Power BI date icon to show, you can refer to My test results:

    [1]We have two tables , and we have not created a relationship between two tables:
    Result : the date icon always shows  in two tables.

     


    [1] Two tables has relationship and we create a one-to-many relationship by the [Date].

    Result: The many side table fo not show the date icon. 

     

    [2]Two tables has relationship and we create a one-to-one relationship by the [Date].

    Situation 1:When we drag the 'Table(2)'[Date] to the ‘Date’[Date] , the date icon in 'Table(2)'[Date] will disappear.

     

    Situation 1:When we drag the ‘Date’[Date] '  to the  'Table(2)'[Date]  , the date icon in ‘Date’[Date] ' will disappear.

     

     

    Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!
