Replace created date field

Hello, 

 

I uploaded an excel file with records yesterday into SharePoint and it all worked out nicely, except for the created field now shows 1/5/2022 for all records.  When I open Power Bi and open my query editor, I see that the created column shows all records showing as 1/5/2022, when instead these records were created over the last several months (9/1/2021 - 1/5/2022) - how do I replace that date with the original created dates for each case?  I have those in an excel file and can match them up to the case numbers. 

 

I'm still a bit new to Power BI - so any assistance is appreciated.

Hi, @ianallen13 

Load your Excel file into PBIX, use the merge query, match the case numbers, click OK, and then expand Create Time Column.

@ianallen13 , Check the steps in the power query, Are you getting the corrected created date field from the source or not. Or is created in power query.

Ideally if it taking from source unless some step modify it, it should remain same
