I am trying to build a new calandar table in my Power BI app. I fiund this suggestion, which gives me the attributes I am looking for except the time is coming up as 1899 and 8 AM is missing.
Any suggestions?
DateTime =
ADDCOLUMNS (
CROSSJOIN (
CALENDAR ( DATE ( 2018, 1, 1 ), DATE ( 2025, 12, 31 ) ),
UNION (
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 1, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 2, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 3, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 4, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 5, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 6, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 7, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 9, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 10, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 11, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 12, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 13, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 14, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 15, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 16, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 17, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 18, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 19, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 20, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 21, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 22, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 23, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 24, 0, 0 ) )
)
),
"DateTime", [Date] + [Time],
"Hour", HOUR ( [Time] )
)
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous,

Hi @Anonymous,
I upldated the formula as below, it worked well.
DateTime =
ADDCOLUMNS (
CROSSJOIN (
CALENDAR ( DATE ( 2018, 1, 1 ), DATE ( 2025, 12, 31 ) ),
UNION (
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 1, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 2, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 3, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 4, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 5, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 6, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 7, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW("Time", TIME(8,0,0)),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 9, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 10, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 11, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 12, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 13, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 14, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 15, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 16, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 17, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 18, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 19, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 20, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 21, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 22, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 23, 0, 0 ) ),
ROW ( "Time", TIME ( 24, 0, 0 ) )
)
),
"DateTime", [Date] + [Time],
"Hour", HOUR ( [Time] )
)

Frank,
Thanks for getting back to me. After I applied the suggested changes, I see the time column has 1899 dates.
I have no idea what the heck you're trying to do with this, but if that is your actual formula then there's a very good reason why 8am is missing...
