PowerBI Service changes year on refresh

Hi all,

 

have you ever seen this problem with PowerBI Service?
When I run my DataBricks SQL query I see normal birthdates, when I run my dashboard on PowerBI desktop, I see normal birthdates.
When I Publish my report to PowerBI Service, I still see normal birthdates. 
BUT... when I refresh the dataset, it changes the total birthdate... It doesn't hussle, but really changes, even when I make a string out of it. I also use a field of today, also a date, but that still works.
I cannot find any solution for it, has anyone seen this before? Clearing the cache doesn't help...

Situation after publishing, without refreshing the dataset:

Situation after publishing, after refreshing the dataset:

So in this example it changes 1908-09-03 into 7988-03-26, it looks totally random...

I assume that is a explicit measure. If you right click on the field in the visuals field well you should be able to set the summarization off. 

 

I assume in your original data you only have a single value, which sums to it's value, when you have more data it grows. If this is not the case have a look at the underlying data to ensure you have rows per each person, and nothing is happening prior to the data getting into power BI
