Date

[Gaucho]

I took a date in a Database with the year 18,19,20,21,22 and
i load it but it came as decimal but when i try to convert these to Date it comes out as 1900.
and i don't know how to get the right date.

Here is the date but it is in decimal number but when i try to change it to date format it is giving me something else as shown below;

Thanks in Advance

Hi @Gaucho ,

Please try below steps:

1. below is my test table

Table:

2. add a new column with below dax formula

Agjust Year =
VAR _val = INT ( "20" & [Year] ) RETURN DATE ( _val, 1, 1 )

 3. set the format in Power BI Desktop

Please refer the attached .pbix file.

@v-binbinyu-msft is there a possibility to have the date with the Month included(i.e MM:JJJJ) or in this format (DD:MM:JJJJ). Thanks in advance
