Extract year from date data
- 4 years ago
the first parameter of this function should be text, not a date value.
if [order date] is date type,try Text.AfterDelimiter(Text.From([ORDER DATE]),"/",{0,1})

Hi Anonymous ,
If the column type is Date, please directly go to Add Column tab--> Date-->Year to extract :
If the column type is Text, then go to Add Column tab--> Extract --> Last characters:

It knows how to parse dates using the rules of the system's culture.
= Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Text", type date}}, "en-US") // verses = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Text", type date}}, "en-GB") // or = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Text", type date}}, "fr") // your default is = Culture.Current
Daniel,
I just tried =Text.AfterDelimiter([ORDER DATE],"/",{0,1}), it failed.
