Date filter doesn't work properly

Hi,

 

I am new to PowerBI and I encounter a problem when I want to filter my report on a date.

 

If I use a slicer with a "between" everything works just fine (see pictures).

But when I use the slicer with a "list" and I select a date from the list Power BI shows nothing.

I don't know why this is happening. The format of my date column is datetime so this is not the problem I think.

Can somebody help me with this, or give an explanation why this won't work?

 

I work with PowerBI service and not with the Desktop version. If possible I would like to have a solution in the service environment because I have not immediately access to the Desktop version.

 

Thanx!

    I have found the sollution!

     

    My date field in the dataset had also milliseconds...

    So when filtering on a specific date only hour:minute:second is checked so no records are found because all the records have a date field with milliseconds in it and differ from the hour:minute:second date filter.

     

    Thanx for the respons v-yulgu-msft!
