Desktop PBIX Report Different Than Service Version
Hello,
When I download a report to desktop, there are differences in the same version in Service. For example, I have a bar graph displaying the last 5 fiscal years and displays fine in Service. When I load that PBIX into Desktop, it only shows up to FY24, it does not include FY25 like the Service. I cannot find a difference in the filters, data, etc. 2025 data does exist in the dataset.
I also have another report where the values are different between Desktop and Service and again cannot find a difference in filtering, code, etc.
Are there certain practices to be aware of when downloading a semantic file to be edited in Desktop so that they are the same? This happens to some of the reports, not all.
Thanks
Sounds like filtering. You can run performance analyzed on desktop to get the Dax query and see if any funny filtering going on

Hi rtcollins ,
Thank you for reaching out to us on Microsoft Fabric Community Forum!
I agree with Deku and lbendlin , it’s often due to hidden filters or time zone differences (Service uses UTC, Desktop uses your local time). Check the filter icon on the visuals and using Performance Analyzer in Desktop to spot anything unusual.
Hope this helps.
Thank you.
