PowerBi Service changes Decimal- and Thousand- Separator
I finally worked it out myself.
In the local settings menu in report builder I manually set every numbers Language to German.

Hello chenwu zhu,
unfortunately this doesn't help, either. I've got my system set to German. And when I modify the report in the report builder desktop app it shows the separators correct. Only when I upload to the service it changes them. Ironically it shows the separators in a power bi dataset correctly as well. Only the report is the other way around.
I've a premium workspace for the report and a pro workspace for the report. Are there different settings for the different workspaces?
Hi LukasR ,
Which language did you choose for Power BI Service? It determines the format of your reports. Please refer to the snapshot below and try to change it.

Same here, the settings are all set to german already. The awkward thing is, my pro workspace is working fine. Only the with report builder made report in my premium workspace is mixing it up.
The problem is rely clear however if you set the regional settings for your country language (for me Dutch) then other reports that are still being made in Excel are being affected due to this. Because reporting names like for days are being converted in to the language (dutvh) which I have then in my settings while I actualle need to have in English. So in my opinion Power Bi has a flaw
