    Nice explanation, the catch is while writing a formula in PQ/PBI never use dot in it. simply write the textend it will auto suggest

    please make videos from the various challenges like Maven, Onyx etc. so that we can start building dashboards on our own from that POV. 🎊

    while working on large volume data - if we resolve date errors - how we can check if there is still no undesired outcome

      One simple way that I can think is to create a duplicate of ur final table in power query which will serve as testing table. In this let's say u want to check the date column, then you can remove all other columns and apply remove duplicate. This will give u a small list of items. Then its easier to check if everything is good to go or not. Hope this helps!

      @@pivotalstats thanks indeed for your suggestion.
      I have taken some subset of data in Excel to check but yes doing within powerbi should be a better option.

    To fix this issue I just jump to power BI desk top and on data view section select the Archive_date column and click column tools at the top and under data type select date data type from the drop down & select the format too...🍰🥧🧁. your approach didn't work for me.

      Great, thanks for sharing. The techniques shown in the video will have to be used only if the simple approach of changing data type does not work. Cheers!
