dates on dashboard

help please. I cannot download the desktop version so use the browser version. I am trying to create a dashboad with one of the charts a line chart from an excel spreadsheet of £s over certain periods. In the spreadsheet the periods are month end dates date/month/year eg 31 Jan 2017. When i select the periods for the x axis they appear as month/date/year and the October period appears after the January period. The dates also carry a time format 12.00.00 AM.

 

How do I reformat the dates to be date/moth/year and be recognised as dates.

 

any help would be appreciated

Hi @davebates,

 

I'm afraid you need the Power BI Desktop. If you want the feature editing in the Service, please create an idea here.
