I'm trying to convert the dates pulled out of SAP in M code to make data ready for reporting. Attached image will show the actual date format which is having micro seconds as well.
Is there a way I can convert the below values to dates in M code:
One of the solution was to convert the number into date using a formula, please refer below link:

This is not working for me. Can someone help?

So let's day your SAP/UNIX datetime column is named SAPTime. If your most recent step is "LastStep", then in the formula bar, you would type:
= Table.TransformColumns(LastStep, {{"SAPTime", each #datetime(1970,1,1,0,0,0) + #duration(0,0,0,[SAPTime])}})
This says take the duration of these seconds, and add that to 1/1/1970 for each value in the SAPTime column.

You cannot have seconds in decimals in date time type, You can just split the microseconds to another column, then you are able to change the date column to date type.
