is it possible to add support for "duration" data type in the report view as in Power Query?

RE: field of "duration" type
There's no way to format a duration field in the report. It just comes as a fixed decimal number, which is useless.
Please solve it!
RE: field of "duration" type
Much needed
RE: field of "duration" type
We should be able to plot time in Y Axis of any chart
RE: field of "duration" type
Please do provide this feature asap as this is much needed feature on Power BI and there are more number of voters.
RE: field of "duration" type
A real disappointment this function doesn't exist on PowerBI. Been Battling with this for days now....although we wouldn't be able to show how much time on a visual......
RE: field of "duration" type
I just had to tell a potential customer at our organization's call center that we would not be able to meet his reporting needs because our data analytics platform did not support aggregating call times in visualizations. They were disappointed, to say the least, and so was I. This is a vitally important feature for so many service lines. I urge the Power BI dev team to put this idea on their priority list.

Please add Data type: Duration
RE: field of "duration" type
Is anyone from the Power BI team going to comment on this? How many of your users have a requirement to plot durations on a chart?
RE: field of "duration" type
Now that I've started working on call data I see how much work there is to get it working as it should. But it is doable, so perhaps a quick measure would make it more accessible. This post shows you how: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Aggregating-Duration-Time/ba-p/22486
RE: field of "duration" type
This is preventing us from properly using Power BI for our Dashboard. I will need to stick with other BI until this is properly fixed. I don't understand how this isn't fixed after all this time
