Thanks so much, Sergei!
Just to clarify, the creation of the hierarchy takes place in the Power Pivot window, not in the Power Query Editor, yes? At least this is where I was able to do it, following your instructions.
I could swear that when I first created the pivot I did not create a hierarchy, but the pivot displayed a hierarchical filter nevertheless. It does seem as though something has changed in Excel since that time. (Indeed, I received at least one Office 365 update since that time.) Regardless, this now works, and you have my sincere thanks.
Best regards,
Tom

Tom, yes, that's Power Pivot, hierarchy exists in data model. Date/Time hierarchy is added automatically if only you didn't disable this setting, other ones you may create manually.
