Remove errors not working

I have a dataset that is returning some errors on the delivery date column.  I have inserted a step to remove rows with errors on this column but error message persists.  Any ideas?

Loaded the data to PBI desktop for better error checking and found the cause then loaded the code back to power query

Hi @Jebilaya ,

 

Please see the link below:

https://www.sumproduct.com/blog/article/power-query-blogs/power-query-evasive-errors

 

The errors you experience are common errors that normally happen if the data is not defined or the error is not deemed to be an error. In particular, the data format in excel is inconsistent. Certain cells are meant to be in a date format but are manually defined as text/number/whatever due to copy and paste or whatever reason.

 

Regards

KT
