YTD measures data discrepancy between power bi desktop and power bi service

[Sonal2901]

Hi,

I have created a report which shows current month and YTD data.  When I publish the same report, the YTD numbers are changed.

I have read somewhere desktop and service handles date differently but when I edit the report on service and drag and drop the date in a new page to see what's the format, it is same as power bi desktop.

Update: I digged more and find out that only value for January for every year is getting doubled in Power BI service. Rest values are same. I don't know what's causing this.

Anyone had this issue while publishing?

Please double-check that you're not doing >= RangeStart and <= RangeEnd. One of these conditions needs to be strict

Thank you @otravers . I changed my condition to >=RangeStart and < RangeEnd. It worked. 🙂

[Sonal2901]

I tried doing >RangeStart and ≤RangeEnd. But now its giving mecorrect value for first three months and  different numbers for few other months. My date dimension is in dual mode and rest all tables in import mode  as I wanted to use hybrid table solution.
Could it be the reason?

Is incremental refresh used on this dataset?

[Sonal2901]

Yes, I have set up an incremental refresh.

Do you have a date dimension or is this from a fact table?

[Sonal2901]

I have a date dimension.

Can you doublecheck that you don't have a different filter context applied in the service, using the filter icon at the corner of your visual?

Hi @otravers ,

I checked it again, the filters are same.
