Line Graph - Dates/Time

I have a “Date” table that has “Date” join to a Refund table with date. Both are defined as date but when I dragged date to a line graph it’s adding the time. Both fields are defined at mm/dd/yyyy.

I dont want time on the line graph! Help.

@mbraun,

I think the problem here is that your data type is still date/time, even though your format is mm/dd/yyyy. Go into Power Query and make sure your data type is set to Date and not Date/Time.

See if this fixes your problem, and if not give a shout.

Hope this is helpful.

I believe that both are.

@mbraun, are both the dates formatted as date in the transform data query editor too?.

I believe everything is set to date in the Query Editor too.

@mbraun,

Hmmm… Would you mind sending a screenshot of what you’re seeing in Transform/Power Query?
(basically the same screenshot from my message above). That may help diagnose the issue. If not, may need a copy of your PBIX to straighten this out.

Thanks.

Thanks for posting your question @mbraun. To receive a resolution in a timely manner please make sure that you provide all the necessary details on this thread.

Here is a potential list of additional information to include in this thread; demo pbix file, images of the entire scenario you are dealing with, screenshot of the data model, details of how you want to visualize a result, and any other supporting links and details.

Including all of the above will likely enable a quick solution to your question.

I need to remove some sensitive information from the data model first and then I will post the .pbix.
