I have a table that is related to a date table:
ShipDate <--> Date
Strangely enough, the ShipDate doesn't have the date indicator.
When I remove the relationship between date table and table which holds ShipDate, then ShipDate has again a date indicator.
How is this possible?

Hi,
the calendar icon indicates that Power BI Desktop uses a hidden date hierarchie for that column.
1. Disable in File > Options and settings > Options > Current File > Date Load > Time Intelligence the control button "Auto date/time. The calendar icon disappears.
2. Mark the calendar table as date table.

Thanks also for your reply.
I had already done this...
So unfortunately this also doesn't solve it...

Select column/Field, then Goto Modeling and check for Data Type: it must be Date/Time or Date.
If it's Text you dont get Hierarchy.
Data types are for both fields the same: Date
So I don't think this is the problem.
