Hi, @oren ;

Accroding to official document, When the option is enabled, Power BI Desktop creates a hidden auto date/time table for each date column, providing all of the following conditions are true:

  • 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

I test it, I don't know why you want to cancel apply Auto Date / time, but if you use this in your original model and use it as a relationship key, when you cancel Auto Date / time, this column will make an error and the relationship will also make an error.
