Hi,
I am relatively new to Power BI and hope someone out there can help me.
I have created a line chart which uses a running total measure to sum up some weight data. The line chart works as intended on Power BI desktop, but when the dashboard is uploaded to powerbi.com, the graph no longer sums up the data points, but instead seems to plot them without calculating the running total. Have any of you experienced something similar before?The correct graph from Power BI desktop
Above is the correct graph from Power BI desktop running locally on my pc.
The incorrect graph from Power BI service
Above is the incorrect graph from Power BI service (powerbi.com), after the .pbix file has been uploaded.
When you encounter discrepancies between Power BI Desktop and Power BI Service (powerbi.com) visuals, it often relates to how data is processed or how DAX measures are calculated within the two environments. Here are some steps and considerations that might help resolve the issue with your running total measure not behaving as expected in the Power BI Service:
Best Regards,
Jayleny

Hello @BadamKredslob ,
I suggest you download the service version and see what;s happening, sometimes when published things get changed.
