Mismatch in Scatter plot Visualization between PowerBI Desktop and Server

Hello Community - 

 

I'm trying to plot a scatter plot with 4 dimension -

1. Sales on X-axis

2. Returns on Y-axis

3. Metric on Size of the bubble

4. Transaction date on Play Axis

 

When I build the visualization on my powerbi desktop, I'm successfully able to get the desired graph. Attaching screenshot.

On clicking the bubble, I'm able to trace the path and historical data bubble appears at their respective data points and slightly translucent.

 

When I try to publish the dashboard on powerbi server (I'm a premium member as well), the visualization doesn't behave the same way as it does on desktop. While I'm able to trace the path, the bubbles for historical data point apper on Y-axis rather than on their respective datapoints. Attaching the screenshot.

Could anyone help me understand why there could be difference in desktop Vs server ? And how can I resolve the issue in powerbi server?

 

Here is the snapshot of the underlying data.
