Dates, time intelligence
Is it necessary for data to be in a date format with a date stamp, in order to use the time intelligence functions?
Would I need to convert my data from the format it is in into a date format?

RE: Dates, time intelligence
Hi Rani,
Thank you for the forum question.
Yes your dates must be recognised as dates (date formatted), and if you want to work with financial months, quarters, and years you must have a date table, if you want to use date intelligence functions.
Kind regards

Power BI tip:Implement Row-Level Security (RLS)If your reports contain sensitive information, implement Row-Level Security to control access to data at the row level. RLS allows you to define rules that restrict data access based on user roles, ensuring that each user sees only the relevant data according to their permissions. |
