Scheduled Refresh Errors
Hello- I've been running into an issue with the Scheduled Refresh. I have a line graph that shows hourly call volumes and it's depicted correctly in the app. When I have the Scheduled Refresh run, the times are all shifted 3 hours later. For example, 6:00AM data is now shown in the 9:00AM time slot.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This could be, because you are in a different timezone and in your dataset you are using TODAY() or NOW() which gets the datetime from the Power BI Servers which are set in UTC.
Please see my blog post below on how to solve this:- Anonymous5 years ago
Thanks! Though I didn't use this exact walkthrough, it helped for writing a formula that worked. I created a New Column in the Data window (not Query Editor) and used the following formula:
PBI Time Correction = 'TABLE'[Timeframe]-5/24

Hi Gilbert- Thanks again for the solution! One thing that recently crossed my mind, when using the formula "PBI Time = 'TABLE'[Timeframe]-5/24" is Daylight Savings. Would you know a way to have this formula correct for DST, so I wouldn't have to change this between 4 and 5 twice a year?
