    Hi Supermat ,

     

    I would suggest after you modify this column to TEXT datatype, add a transformation of replacing 0 with NULL and then tranforming it to Date type. You can easily do this in Power Query editor in Power BI.

     

    This is you date column which is text type:

    Then add a transformation step to replace 0 with Null (as 0 can't be taken as a date)

    Now modify the column data-type to Date type:

    You will get the desired result.

     

    Thanks,

    Pragati
