smalldatetime representation

‎01-19-2018 09:14 AM

Hello,

I have a table with a variable being as smalldatetime - eg 1955-12-13 12:43:10.

I can see the data correctly in Azure SQL - with full date & time.

 

However, in PowerBI any filtering I'm doing by the smalldatetime  column, it will show up only the time interpretation - [day], December 12, 1955.

Is it possible to make this show up with the full date & time value?

 

Thank you!

Check your Power Query and make sure the column is set to a date/time categorization and not date. Then, in Power BI modeling, make sure the format is set to date/time.
