Error persistente en Power BI No se encuentra la columna drive después de eliminarla del modelo

Hola, 
Tengo una columna en Excel que refleja la fecha actual. Use esa tabla para crear un reporte en power bi y realmente esa columna no me sirve, al momento de transformar los datos elimine todas las columnas y deje unicamente las que necesitaba pero al dia siguiente la columna en drive se actualiza a la fecha actual y me dejo ese error en mi reporte.

Hi @Fernando232 ,

From what I understand, you have a column in Excel that updates daily and, although you removed this column when transforming the data into Power BI, the automatic update of the column in the Excel file on your drive is causing errors in your Power BI report.

 

Please follow these steps:

Make sure that Power BI is not trying to import the deleted column when the Excel file is refreshed.

If your Excel file is stored in OneDrive or SharePoint, Power BI will refresh it approximately every hour. Make sure you make any changes to your Excel file, such as deleting unwanted columns, before the automatic refresh.
