I want to create a key column Source_Target_Date in the format of USD_USD_10/18/2022. Below is what I get, how can I avoid the "-" symbol in the column?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I tried the DAX below and get AUD_AUD_10-18-2022.
Column = 'Table'[Converted currency]&"_"&'Table'[budget currency]&"_"&FORMAT('Table'[dateid],"MM/DD/YYYY")
Below is how I solve the problem. However, it's a bit complicated, so I was hoping there is an easier solution.
Hi @Jeanxyz ,
for me it works easily. I think that is important that you don´t change the data type in Power Query from date to text.
Hi @Jeanxyz ,
You can try like this:-
Column = 'Table'[Converted currency]&"_"&'Table'[budget currency]&"_"&FORMAT('Table'[dateid],"MM/DD/YYYY")
