Report builder Datepicker language format

[SnoekL]

Hi, i have a report created with Power BI Report Builder with a date parameter for which is used as a filter with a datepicker.

In report builder (locally) it's showing in dutch format. To get this I had to change the Language settings to nl-nl

But for some reason this will not work in Power BI service. There it remains in English. Even when users have there browser in Dutch.

Does anyone know how I can solve this and have the datepicker show in Dutch format in power bi Service?

It didn't resolve the fact that the week is starting with Sunday where it is normal in Netherlands to start with Monday. Anyone an idea how to resolve that?

Hi @SnoekL 
In addition to setting the browser language, you also need to set the POWER BI SERVICE language to match the browser language.
