kymiller17,

I am unable to view the image you post, could you please upload it again? In your scenario, do you set Confidence interval to 99%?

I test the forecasting feature in the latest version of Power BI Desktop(2.52.4921.682), everything works well. I will appreciate that if you can share sample data of your table, I will test it in my Desktop.



Regards,
Lydia

Hi Lydia - I'm not sure why the image isn't showing up for you, but here are some more. I have tried all confidence levels and other options. As you can see in these images, the problem moves from graph to graph when filters are applied. 

 

All of these visualizations are pulling values from the same data fields, but each graph is filtered to a particular segment. The value is just a count of a text field. Dates are dates. The data set is somewhat large and also confidential, and since the problem moves around it's not easy for me to share an example.

 

My colleague who posted above is looking into samples of the data and trying to reproduce the problem in Excel. He can post more info if he finds any conclusions.

 

Thanks for the reply.
