Convert Time to Format of 24 hours

Hi Team,

We have a column( Transfer time), in power query we need convert this column to 24 hours format.  The transfered column should be present in dataset. It should not be caluculated column or Measure.

Result shoud be like:  15:20 for (3:20:57PM).

 

 

  • Use below step where #"Changed Type" should be replaced with your previous step (The result will be in text format as Power Query time format is fixed as shown in your picture)

    Table.ReplaceValue(#"Changed Type",each [Transfer time],each Time.ToText([Transfer time],"hh:mm"),Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Transfer time"})

     See the working here - Open a blank query - Home - Advanced Editor - Remove everything from there and paste the below code to test

    let
        Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WUorViVYytjIysDIyVwjwVYqNBQA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Transfer time" = _t]),
        #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Transfer time", type time}}),
        Custom1 = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Changed Type",each [Transfer time],each Time.ToText([Transfer time],"hh:mm"),Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Transfer time"})
    in
        Custom1
