How do I show the date in dd/mm/yyyy format without removing the date hierarchy?

I plan to have two tables. One will drill through to the other. But for one of them the date is displaying in the following format:

I want it to display in the dd/mm/yyyy format but I do not want to delete the date hierarchy as I would need it to create the parent drill through table:

I am attaching the pbix file incase anyone would like to play around with it.

@HamidBee , when dragged that date in the visual, on right-click there is an option show it as date or hierarchy (where you have removed qtr , day)

 

Use date. For format use column tools, when you click on the column you will get that. there is an option for format

Hi @HamidBee ,

 

For formating the date you can select date and just add dd/mm/yyyy from the top.PFB screenshot for reference

Now right click on date column from visualization pane and select date only.
