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)
Best regards,
Yuliana Gu
