Hi, @waleed111 

I can reproduce your issue here.

I guess that you column "Year A" is of type "DATE".

As mentioned in this document ,function "Year"  returns the year of a date as a four digit integer in the range 1900-9999.

It is suggest to convert your column  "Year A" to type "text"

@waleed111 , it may be because it is time or has data type as time.

 

Only time will have a year 1900

 It is of type date.

@waleed111 , this is strange, Can you share sample  pbix after removing sensitive data.

 

Try this

Year A = format('[Added Time],"YYYY")

 

Hope you do not have another table. Try without a table name

Year A = YEAR('[Added Time])
