Why is the due date in Microsoft ToDo one day different then the same ToDo in Microsoft planner?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by smileyn9 9

I have a problem with the date transmission in power automate. I've created a flow via power automate, that if a Microsoft ToDo is created, a new task in Microsoft Planner is created and I'm assigned to it. After that, the flow deletes the origin tasks and only the Planner task, which is now assigned to me is shown in the Microsoft ToDo App. (Otherwise it would be double)   

What is working: If I create a task in Microsoft ToDo with due date for example 02.05.2023, it creates a task in Microsoft Planner with due date 02.05.2023 (correct date) and assignes the task to me and deletes the old task.

One problem: The same task (reference to the planner task) is shown in ToDo App with due date 01.05.2023 (everytime one day difference).

Can somebody help me with that date transmission problem?

    First of all you should check, if the time zone settings are the same in your Planner and ToDo.

    ToDo seems to have some issues:

    Hi @pep1 

     

    would it be due to timezone issue like Timezone changes from and to UTC ?

     

    Thanks & Regards,

    I am having the same issue. I am using graph-explorer. The task due date is one day off only if it is a new task and the due date was not edited. Once you edit the due date then it is fine. It needs to be fixed.

    HI @Nived_Nambiar ,

     

    yes I've checked my planner. There is the correct (original date). Only in the To Do App its one day difference, even though its the reference to the planer task.

    This issue seems to be strange. As task created in Planner produces correct task with correct due date as needed. But the planner task appears 1 day earlier in to do list. 

     

    Just to confirm, have you checked your planner and verified that planner task is created with correct due date apart from checking from flow by looking at flow result?

    Hey @Nived_Nambiar ,

     

    here is an example data. I've created a To-Do "Test OA. " in To-Do App with due date 08.05.2023. As a result of the flow a new task in planner was created with the right due date. But a new To-Do in To-Do was created with due date 07.05.2023
     
    I've marked the due dates red.
     
    When a new to-do in a specific folder is created (To-Do App):
