    Hi, andreame 

    The current issue is that power BI service can't calculate due to inconsistencies in your data source's date format and in Power BI service, resulting in a "default" date and zero date (1899-12-30).

    Why is 1899-12-30 the zero date in Access / SQL Server instead of 12/31? - Stack Overflow

    Meaning, when you hit refresh, your latest data will be passed into the Power BI service, and then the Power BI service can't read it as a normal date, and then it will automatically convert to this 0 date.

    You should check the date column format of your data source. You can check the following case:

    To avoid this problem, set the date to the international standard date format.
