Different visualisation between web and computer

Hello,

I have a reporter that displays a date with the following format dd / mm / yy, but when uploading it to the workspace it appears as mm / dd / yy, how can I solve it?

Hi, there is something that depends on regions. Browser and Power Bi Desktop. If you have "default" data types and formats they will render depending on the configuration of the tools. If you force your browser to your country (that probably shows dd/mm/yyyy), you will fix it. 
You can also force it in Power Query transform data. You can select an specific format before loading data in order to avoid default date. Just do as the picture shows and then pick "Year" and your wished format:

Hope that helps,
