Improve Direct Query Date Time Handling

When using direct query you should be able to change a date axis to show only the month. This works using excel or when doing a transform but neither of these are possible using DirectQuery. Even workarounds like FORMAT can't be used with direct query. This really needs fixing!

Also critical: hierarchy dates for charts!

Please add this! Agree wholeheartedly that Direct Query & Import modes should have the same date handling functionality!!!

Please add DATE HIERARCHY in Direct Query mode also. Why there is such a difference in import and direct query mode. Too much difficulty in handling such situation.

I do not understand why direct query acts differently than import. This needs to be fixed. I am spending silly amounts of time trying to work around it.

Import and DirectQuery data connectivity modes should have the same common functionality of Date/Calendar hierarchy. This is so overdue from Power Bi team. Please consider implementing it as soon as possibly can.

I would rank this request from user community above all new futures released monthly.
