How to convert dates from data source Active Directory 1.32242E+17 to dd/mm/yyyy

Hi

 

I've been asked to create an AD report. But when I import the following field; accountexpires, lastlogon, lastlogonTimestamp, pwdLastSet, they appear in a format such as 1.32242E+17.

 

How do I convert them to dd/mm/yyyy?

 

Thanks in advance

Martin

Hi @v-zhenbw-msft 

 

Thank you for your response.

 

I solved this by using this formula:

 

Last Log In Date = COALESCE(DIVIDE ( [user.lastLogon], 8.64 * 10 ^ 11 ) - 109205,0)
 
Thanks

A better solution is to just change the format to date / time.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

In the data source, is the type a Date/Time format or scientific notation?

In Power Query Editor, please delete the change Type, then what is the result of the column? Is it a yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss type?
