Date Format help

Hi Guys, 

 

Need some help with the below scenario, 

 

I have a date column with a format dd-mmm-yy. I needed to change this to dd-mmm-yyyy without adding a new column. Hence i made the date column as measure by using sum. SInce the measure had a total, to hide the total i used another measure. (Display Measure = if(HASONEVALUE(XXPBI_SHIPMENT_MV[Confirm Date]),XXPBI_SHIPMENT_MV[Measure],BLANK())  ). Now to change the format i used another measure with the format function  - format([display measure], "DD-MMM-YYYY). This was not showing all values. Further the year was a sum in some rows. But it was displaying correctly in one page and in another it wasn't. Attached the snippets. date format snippet.PNGdate format snippet with sum.PNG

It is hard to troubleshooting from your snapshot, can you please share a pbix file with some sample data for test?
