Datetime2 is not a defined system type
I have a report developed that is attached to a dashboard. I use a SQL database as the source of my report. I am able to pull data, publish and refresh from the Desktop. I have scheduled the dataset to refresh. The scheduled refresh will not complete on the scheduler and I cannot make it refresh.
I get Underlying error code -2147467259 Table:TASKS
Underlying error message Microsoft SQL: Type datetime2 is not a defined system type
DM_ErrorDetailNameCode_UnderlyingHResult -2147467259
Microsoft.Data.Mashup.ValueError.Reason DataSource.Error
Cluster URI WABI-US-EAST2-redirect.analysis.windows.net
I have the most current version of desktop loaded. When I googled the error it looks like something that existed back in 2016 that is supposed to be fixed now. Anyone have suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Please check if the data type is valid in SQL Server and same with that in power bi.

My data is being pulled from just one table. The table is in SQL Server Express Edition, Version 9.4.5000.00. I pull the data straight into Power BI. From the Query Editor I changed all of the columns I am using from DateTime format to Date MM/DD/YYYY to facilitate date range comparisons. When I run the Refresh from within the Desktop environment it works great. I have confirmed my row counts and hash level totals and they are correct. It is the published version of the report, that is part of a dashboard, that will not successfully refresh. I am using a Corporate Gateway that works successfully for my other reports.
When I navigate to the Power BI site and manage Gateways I can select my defined part of the cluster and the Data Source Settings Tab reflects the connection is successful. I am using Organizational level Privacy.
I am at a loss on how to proceed. Any further advice?
