U.S. Industrial Production in Datastream

I am fetching U.S. industrial production from Datastream, and coming up with a different time series than what is showing up on Datastream's charting platform. Also missing the month of October. I also fetched the data using their excel pluggin to be sure. I contacted them about the bug and told me to get in touch with you guys about it.

See screen shot attached.

EViews matches Datastream on our end.

What is your build date?

It shouldnt matter since you are fetching a monthly series to a monthly workfile but what are your conversion method settings in options->general options, series and Alphas->frequency conversion.
