Hello
Trying to add a custom column in Query editor with date function in direct query mode is giving a message "Step is not supported in DIrect Query Mode".
Function used is - Date.AddDays([OrderDate],[CustTerms.DueDays])
Order date is already converted to Date format and Due days is a whole number. Is this not supported in Direct Query mode. What will be the alternative option. I am trying to add number of days to an existing date.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Based on my test, we cannot use the function for direct query.
We can use calculated column to work around.
Column = 'Product'[SalesDate] +3

Thank you. That was much simpler option
