USEREALTIONSHIP convert to date in VAR

[BGB]

Hi all,

I have a calendar table date column that I'm trying to connect to my main table with an arrival date column. However, the arrival date is in datetime format. 

The question is: How do I convert the arrival date to use userelationship in my measure without creating a new date-only column?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

See if in the Query Editor, you can change the data type to Date (from Date/Time)

The desired outcome is to use the same date-time column converted within dax when using USERELATIONSHIP.

I don't think that is possible.

Hi @BGB ,

I'm a little confused about your needs, Could you please explain them further? It would be good to provide a screenshot of the results you are expecting and desensitized example data.

Thanks for your efforts & time in advance.

The question is to convert the date-time column to date only using Dax while using the USEREALTIONSHIP function.

This is not very tricky. You have a date-time column that needs to connect to your calendar date column. Because the calendar date does not have time we need to convert our date-time column to date only but without doing that in Power Query , can it be done using DAX?

Hi @BGB ,

As @Ashish_Mathur said, this shouldn't be possible with dax, it's recommended to get the data types converted first.

Your recommendation is not useful here. Thanks for your time.
