Hi nwrong,

 

and what are you doing to get the correct data now? Do you make a manual refresh in Dektop once a day?

 

I don´t know what to do and the refresh every day is really annoying. Is the false data you get from a created measure or the data from an Excel file / SQL server?

i'm unable to get the pbi service to display the correct data. 

 

I guess i could disable the scheduled refresh and manual refresh and republish from PBI desktop each day....

    Maybe one solution is to write a ticket to Microsoft to solve this problem...I don´t know what to do and don´t want to refresh it every day by my own.

    Anonymous I'm experiencing the exact the same problem. Did you figure out what was causing the difference? 

     

    Thanks,

    Hi TT,

     

    no I don´t know why we have that problem when we have the sheduled refresh...

    It works when you do it manually, but not with the scheduled refresh?

    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Thanks for your quick response. 

     

    The refresh in PBI service, both manually and scheduled, gives different results compared to a refresh in PBI desktop. Though, no errors are shown when running the data refresh. Like you, data source is only updated once a night. 

     

    Today I ran a manual refresh in service and there were only small differences, half an hour later I refresh again manually and huge differences appear. I'm clueless... 

     

     

    Br,

    Hi,

    I'm having exactly the same problem with Power BI Service. When I refresh my data in Power BI Desktop I see two tiles with correct values, let's suppose 20% and 50%. When I upload this report to Service this data is still the same, but the problem appears when I activate a manual or scheduled updation in Service: then, these two tiles go to zero! In comparison, I refresh my data in Desktop and these two tiles show figures different to zero, which is the correct result.

    What's happenning? This is a very annoying issue. Should I open a ticket yo Microsoft?
