Microsoft Power BI Data Analyst Practice Question

You import a CSV file into Power Query. After automatic type detection, the OrderDate column displays the value Error for many rows and dataset refresh fails with the message: DataFormat.Error: We couldn't parse the value "31/12/2024" as type Date. The file stores dates in the dd/MM/yyyy format, but the computer's regional settings are en-US. Which action in Power Query resolves the import error while keeping OrderDate as a Date column?

  • Change the OrderDate column type by selecting Use locale, choose Date as the data type, and select a locale that uses the dd/MM/yyyy pattern such as English (United Kingdom).

  • Change the OrderDate column type to Text so the values are not parsed as dates.

  • Rename the OrderDate column before the Changed Type step to prevent schema conflicts.

  • Use Replace Errors to change all Error values in OrderDate to null.
