Hi,
Have a dataflow where a date shows correctly as DD/MM/YYYY
When I import the dataflow into desktop I can see the default format as per screenshot below is DD Month YYYY
What is the best way to ensure that all dates by default have the format DD/MM/YYYY without having to do this manuallyevery time import a table with date datatypes?
i.e. it should default to the short date rather than the long date
Have Regional Settings/United Kingdom
Thanks
Thanks for posting this; I too am suffering from this lack of configurability.

Hi @po ,
Based on my test, it do will convert to text format with "dd/mmm/yy", it may due to your location, you could refer to below blog that may help you:
