Upload data that has unknown hours

Hi

I am trying to upload a spreadsheet that has hh:mm:ss of 99:99:99 due to hours are unknown. How do I upload those hours to retain the data as unknown hours?

 

Thank you

  • Hi Marshmallow 

    Either keep a duplicate copy of the column as text or retain the original column in text format. Converting the column to time will cause errors for values that Power Query cannot parse, and those entries will be loaded as nulls.
