Excel behaving different to power BI

[Ckirwan]

Hi,

I have been making some changes to tables names and hidding some tables to clean up the business users experience.  I have found in my change that excel is bevaving different to power BI, Powe BI is giving me the right results split by a timeline and excel just the same value for all time lines.  I don want to roll back as I have made a lot of changes to object level security

Go back into the Power Pivot window and ensure your relationships are accruate, and go into Power Query and ensure your data type formats are correct. A date that is coming in as Text, Any (123/ABC) or anything but "date" will cause these issues.

It could be in making the changes you have made, something got messed up. My first bet is the relationships. Note too that Excel doesn't support bi-directional relationships, so if you did that in Power BI, you cannot in Excel.
