Year Filter Not Working
Hello Experts,
I'm exploring power BI, I just encounter follower error on selectiong year Filter,
Any idea on how to resolve this?
Hi Ashfaq,
You may have done some change in query editor, right? Text type can't be changed to date type directly so the error happens, as a workaround, you can create a custom column to convert text to date in query editor using function as below than use the custom column instead of original column in your visual:
Date.FromText(date as nullable text, optional culture as nullable text) as nullable date
