incorrect Date in PowerBI
Dear Folks,
I am working on a Solution which involves PowerBI, Sharepoint as data source and Powerapps as a data input app.
My data source (Sharepoint list) has a Date Column
The problem I am having is while I update a Date in my Sharepoint list.
Example
Powerapps - Date input is 1 June 2021
Sharepoint - Date shows 1 June 2021 (perfectly fine)
PoweBi Online report in my Workspace - Date shows 31 May 2021 (incorrect)
I am not able to understand why it shows me one day less than expected. I searched online and found that it has to do with the timezone but I have no clue how PowerBi Service sets its timezone and how to change it.
Only thing currently I feel is my Sharepoint and Powerapps have a correct timezone and PowerBi Service has some other.
Need to fix this.
Your help is truly appreciated.
Thanks alot
Hi AkshayShingan ,
Power BI Services automatically converts all the date/datetime to UTC timezone. Hence, what you are getting is expected.
You will have to create a new date measure/column to convert the timezone to required one and then use this date everywhere.
For example: Datetime+5.5 hours=IST timezone

Current it only supports UTC datetime, there is no features can auto transform time zone. If the data in Sharepoint has updates , you can try manually refresh the report .
I searched some issues in forums ,maybe you can refer to these links :
