Hi

GilbertQ v-easonf-msft 

 

I found out what was causing it the issue.

My dates in the report online was somehow wrong, it was showing 1 day less the actual date in SharePoint.

So if you logged a ticket on 30/03 then it power bi online it process as 29/03.

So When I applied the date slicer to the current date, no data was returned because in power online it was yesterdays date.

 

I also found that date/time fields are changed in online the time is 2 hours earlier than the actual time in SharePoint.

But the date and  the date/time is correct in the desktop version.

 

Looks like power bi online is coverting dates into some other time zone date.

Do anyone know how to fix this issue?

 

Many Thanks,

Cleir

Looks like the

Hi there

All date/time is based off UTC for the Power BI Servers.

What you would need to do is to adjust your DateTime columns with the offset of what your time zone is.

For example I am in a time zone of UTC +10, so I have to add 10 hours to my datetime columns using the #duration(0,10,0,0)

      Hi ,  Anonymous 

      I‘m still a little confused  with your  problem .

      Please  follow steps below to check whether there are any differences in the  data   returned from desktop table visual and service table visual.

      1)get data from  sharepoint list ,  extract the  "date modifield"  field into a table visual and create a custome  column (UTC +2)

       

       

      = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Custom", each DateTimeZone.SwitchZone([Date modified],2))

       

       

       

      2)Then publish the report to service
