Durations in power bi

[mrupsidown]

I am importing data from Excel.

In Excel, I am able to display DURATIONS as hours:minutes correctly with the format [h]:mm which allows to show durations that exceed 24 hours such as 30:45 (30 hours and 45 minutes).

How do I format my durations the same way in power bi? And how do I SUM them?

I found my answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/50394914/1238965

That could be so much easier though if MS products were consistent...

@mrupsidown , You have to display in text format.

There are few blogs around that
