Format Dates from a Tabular Model

‎02-14-2019 02:40 PM

So here is my scenario.

SSAS Tabular model database has my data.

Using Power BI to persent/vizualize my data.

 

I have Date columns that are coming from SSAS Tabular as 2019-01-15, but I'd like them to show up as  mm/dd/yyyy.

 

I can't seem to find a way in Power BI to format the data that is connected via Live/Direct Query to SSAS tabular model.

Or is there something I'm missing in the SSAS Model to preformat the dates.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

You should define the date format in SSAS model before loading data into Power BI. Please refre to: Formatting SSAS values (Live connection/explore live)
