Hi there,
When I compare the Power BI Desktop report to the report thats been published to Power BI Service, the Date slicer produces different results for the same date range.
Power BI Desktop
I apply the date filter 5 Nov to 9 Nov and I correctly see 'Expected Hours' as 37.5 hours for each staff member.
Power BI Service (Published report)
When I do the same Date filter in Power BI Service I get a different result for 'Expected Hours', now it show as 30 hours!! Why???
'Expected Hours' is a Measure defined as follows.
The 'StaffExpectedHours' table where "Expected Hours' is coming from has its own date column which is linked to the 'Date'[Date] column. The 'Date'[Date] is used as date slicer in the report.
Appreciate any suggestions as to what I might need to look at to fix this.
Thank you.
hi, @Landcrab
I have tested on my side, but not reproduce the issue.
For example:
Power bi desktop
power bi service
and the measure
Expected hours = SUM(S[staff])-SUM(H[holiday])
So please check the dataset in power bi service whether has been refreshed.
Please refresh the dataset and the report then try it.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/refresh-desktop-file-local-drive
By the way, refresh the dataset in both power bi service and power bi desktop, then compare the result of them.
Best Regards,
Lin
