    Hi  AlessandroBet ,

    In Power BI Desktop, you select File > Options and settings > Options, and then select either the Global or Current File page. On either page, the option exists in the Time intelligence section.

    There are also restrictions on date hierarchies:

    • The table storage mode is Import
    • The column data type is date or date/time
    • The column isn't the "many" side of a model relationship

    Refer to:

    Why there is no date hierarchy - Microsoft Power BI Community

     

    There is also a workaround:

    You can  create four calculated columns to extract the  "Year," "Quarter," "Month“,” Day " from column"Date".

    Then you can manually create new Heirarchy, by right-clicking on the date, then drag in the other pieces you need ("Year," "Quarter," "Month“,” Day, ").

     

    Year = YEAR('Annual Days'[Date])
    
    Quarter = QUARTER('Annual Days'[Date])
    
    Month = MONTH('Annual Days'[Date])
    
    Day = DAY('Annual Days'[Date])

     

    Click [Date] – Create hierarchy

    Add four columns to the hierarchical results

    [Day] – Add to hierarchy – Date Hierarchy.

     

     

    Best Regards,
