Custom column gives a data type error when switching from mixed to full import mode

cmiller1221 , I doubt your datatype of the fixed decimal number.
For sum of duration refer to these

Can you verify that the data types as seen in Power Query or Import Mode are EXACTLY the same as they were when it was in Direct Query mode? Don't just assume by looking at the data in the Desktop, you need to note the data type(s) in Power Query.
Does the issue go away if you revert back to Direct Query?
Thanks for the quick reply.
I just triple checked again and everything is exactly the same. The custom column is identical and so is everything in Power Query.
I do not believe you can revert back to direct query, but I have one file on direct and one file on import that are identical except for that. The direct query works and the import does not.
