    Power Query: data difference PQ screen vs Excel worksheet

    Hi All,

    I have data loaded from another file through PQ.
    In the PQ screen my datums look correct (dd/mm/yyyy), but when all data is loaded to the worksheet the datums suddenly are 2027 (for 2023) and 2028 (for 2024) and the days are +1.
    Can someone possibly explain what I'm doing wrong?

    I'm grouping rows for that data*
    Example:
    Person Y has worked for Project 1 on 14/01/2024 for 4 hours.
    Person Z has worked for Project 1 on 14/01/2024 for 4 hours.
    PowerQuery groups those two rows to: Project 1 on 14/01/2024 = 8h

    PQ screen - last step in process:

    Worksheet:

    Not from screenshots, no.

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook (yellow banner: HOW TO ATTACH YOUR SAMPLE WORKBOOK). Screenshots are of little practical use as we cannot manipulate them.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

    Added an attachment.
    I was doubting if it would work with the PQ link, but it does :-)

    That's of no use - sorry. The source data is missing.

    Please prepare a workbook that contains the following:

    1. A worksheet containing the SOURCE data.
    2. The query.
    3. A worksheet containing the table generated by the query.
