    Hi HenkeC,

    What is the data type and data format of the merged column? Create a new calculated new column using one of the following DAX formula based on your needs to merge the existing two date columns, then re-publish the Power BI Desktop to Service and check if refresh works as expected.

    Please replace column names with your owns in the following formulas.

    MergeColumn1 = CONCATENATE('Date'[Column1], 'Date'[Column2])
    MergeColumn2= CONCATENATE('Date'[Column1],CONCATENATE(",",'Date'[Column2]))

    Thanks,
    Lydia Zhang
