Solved! Go to Solution.
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.
