Help - Date format does not work at all

Hi Guys!

 

I am trying to change the column CSO doc creation date CET - copy into dates (cause it is text right now).

However, the result (Date Transf) show me errors in the format and many dates with error as well.

 

I tried all the date change format, tried changing locale and even some formulas but nothing helps.

 

Below I highlight in yellow the main errors that are popping up. 

 

Thanks in advance

Hi @Anonymous 

What is the standard date format in your location is it dd/mm/yyyy.
What function are you using in "Date Transf"?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

you might need to revisit this column in source, I think your function is trying to convert "13th Day" as Month, which will result into error.

Share more details around how you are getting this data into power bi and how are you trying to convert it to date. 

 

Thank You,
