Visualization automatically adds time to date column

Hi everyone

 

I have a question about power Bi web version. When I add a date column to the report it automatically adds a time next to the date to several instances. I can be a list, card, etc. it will still add the time (screenshot below).

Opening it in the desktop version it works fine with no time input. The data set has no times added to it either so I am rather confused why does it do this.

Hi @Cezar !

Please ensure data type of column is set as [Date] & formatting can be done at visual level.

Hi @HashamNiaz 

 

The data within the excel is set as Short Date throughout the column. Where would I find the option to format it at visual level ? Field formating doesn't seem to have an option for that.
