Flow showing wrong dates

Hi,

I've made a vacation request in Flow. It works perfectly, apart from one thing: the Start date and End date shows up as "one day earlier" than the date that is originally entered.

That is:

* Employee requests leave from March 2 to March 3, and those dates are shown in the corresponding Dates columns in the custom SP list. 

* In the approval e-mail sent to Manager, if I want the e-mail to pick values from the Dates column

  • the the dates shown are March 1 and March 2!* When Manager approves by clicking Approved in the approve e-mail, and the Flow makes the status switch to Approved - the dates are also switched to March 1 and March 2 in the SP list!

This could be solved by making optional the dates in the Dates columns, and omitting the dates in the approval e-mail. This makes it possible to leave those fields blank in the SP item update. But that of course makes it possible to leave a vacation request without a date, and we do not want that.

Any ideas why this happens?

I have tried with different Flows in different lists, same issue.

A SP list item before approval and the corresponding update:

The same SP list item after update:

This is the Flow:

Microsoft 365 and Office | Install, redeem, activate | For home | Other

    Hello Marten,

    Normally, there is something within the settings that needs to be reconfigured to fix this. However, for us to better understand the issue, we'll need to know which specific app or program is this.

    We're looking forward for your response.
