I have a table with dates in DateTime format:
When I try to break them down to s string using Format, the time always comes back as "12:00:00 AM"
Heres the DAX I am using:
Harvest Hours = Format(DATEVALUE( MAX('Abattoir RecordScan'[EventDate])),"MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss AM/PM")Ultimately, I am trying to get the MAX and MIN datetime from a day and then Subtract to get the total time between the two.
Is my DAX wrong?
Am I going about this all wrong?
Any help appreciated

Hi @rigamonk
You may use DATEDIFF Function (DAX) to get the total time between the two. Show DAX as below:
Harvest Hours = FORMAT ( MAX ( 'Abattoir RecordScan'[EventDate] ), "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss AM/PM" )
