    Hi coatsy35 ,

     

    For all Microsoft 365 services (including OneDrive For Business, Delve, and SharePoint Online), you can change the language and regional settings at the user level in a Cloud identity or Synchronized identity model by using Microsoft Graph PowerShell.

    For more details, please refer: Set language and regional settings for Microsoft 365 - Microsoft 365 | Microsoft Learn

     

    Best Regards,

    Neeko Tang

coatsy35 Hi the reason might be ;- Power BI service operates in the UTC time zone, and evaluates all locale based time functions in that time zone. Power BI Desktop evaluates them according to the locale of the user.

    That may be, but not sure how. As I canot log into two different PB service accounts on my PC and have different date formats shown in both. It's to do with the user acocunt screen language and region format. Howver the only way I can see to change this is to do it for each user individually. Hopign their is a way to change them all through O365 admin
