Change the measurement start time forward by 1 hour in Measurements page and create the report after this change. See more guidance on how to change the start time from here: Correcting the measurement start time in Lifestyle Assessment
CASE 2: Summertime to wintertime change takes place in middle of the measurement. In this case, some of the journal entries match with the measurement data, some does not.
Measurement start time can be changed forward by 1 hour but the whole data will not match with the journal entries. By looking at the data and journal entries, consider if it's worth changing the start time of the measurement, changing start times of some of the journal entires, or doing nothing.
When going through the report with the client it's good to mention the impact summertime to wintertime change has had to the data - some of the journal entries can be 1 hour off. However, this does not affect essentially to the results.

When changing the measurement start time you only need to change the time of the hours part. You don't need to change the minutes even though they might slightly differ from the measurement start time the client has announced.
