How to hide Relative Time filter in Power bi service for Date column

[Narukkp]

Hi Team,

1. In Report panel date filters are not working as expected in power  service for Date data type columns. i.e. I have a Date Range(column as date datatype) filter in report level filter panel and when I am observe there are 4 filter types -Advance Filtering, Basic filtering , Relative Date, Relative Time  are showing in service but in my desktop it is showing only 3 types – Advance Filtering, Basic Filtering, Relative Date. Can someone  help me how to remove or hide the Relative Time in service

2. In Advance Filtering when I am selecting the is on date & is on after dates but here it is taking current time in time interval place. But in my desktop when I am selecting the dates it is considering the 12:AM by default. So can someone help how to stop the current time in time interval place.

Hi @Narukkp ,

1. The version of Power BI Service is basically kept up to date. So, you can find "Relative Time" filter in Power BI Service.

    But in Power BI Desktop, if you don't update it, it won't show the new features.

    Currently, there is no workaround to hide it. It is suggested to post your idea on this post: 

Share your thoughts on the new relative time filter and slicer (preview).

2. I have not found other workarounds currently. 

    Maybe this is a bug, so I have reported it internally. I will update the status here in time.

Hi @Narukkp ,

The issue "in Power BI Service, default time in Advanced filtering of Date column changes to the current time after choosing date" has been fixed. Please check.

Hi @Narukkp ,

1. Relative Time filter is a new type of filter announced this month. 

Given that this is a preview feature, we greatly appreciate any feedback in terms of what you liked about the feature and how we can improve it!

2. Try this: 

First click on the default time, 12, then select date. Then, the time won't become the current time.

Hi,
Thank you @Icey 

1) But here my ask is i have not used the latest version and also my colum data type is date then why we have to show retiave time filter in drop down?

2) It is very dificult to teach the end user like below workaround (First click on the default time, 12, then select date) is there any another way to stop this current time option ?

If I were to hazard a guess I think you are fighting a losing battle on this one. If I had to guess, the relative time is a new feature that has been released in the Service and will make it's way to the Desktop.
