    Hi,

    I had the same issue by using SSAS. I noticed that in SSAS the data on the data format on the date column was set to either General or short date. Setting the data format to dd/MM/yyyy fixed the issue.

    Hope this helps.

Hi irmat,

I had the same problem as saunders (in Eastern Australia as well) and I've changed my date format under Windows Region settings to the long format dd/mm/yyyy, but still having the same issue.

Am I changing the date format in the wrong place?  If so, where should I be changing it?

 

In Query editor I changed the type to Date (as it comes through as text via a web link to a dataset from Blackbaud CRM) and getting an error on those dates in which the day is above 12. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks!
