Conditional Rounding

Hi everyone

 

Can anyone think of a way that I can apply conditional rounding to a card?

I have a report showing revenue, profit, targets etc for different business units within a group. Some units are smaller than others, therefore, they report in hundreds of thousands some over a million. I want to be able to show one decimal place if millions but zero decimal places if thousands.

 

e.g. £562K & £1.3M

 

I use a measure to calculate the values which are then filtered by business unit thus applying the decimal place in modeling impacts all business units.

 

Hope someone can help.

 

Thanks

 

Chris

Use round to in formula and check

Measure = IF([Measure]>1000000,FORMAT(round([Measure]/1000000,0),"£#.#M"),FORMAT(round([Measure]/1000,0),"£#K"))

You can check the number use if or Switch and format to give a formatted number. But the output will become text

if([Measure]>1000 && [measure]<=1000000,format([measure]/1000,"#,#")

Thanks I will give that a go

That is really useful, the only concern I have is the rounding. Using your suggestion I've got it displaying correctly.

Measure = IF([Measure]>1000000,FORMAT([Measure]/1000000,"£#.#M"),FORMAT([Measure]/1000,"£#K"))

However if the value is £309.5K it only shows £309, where I should display £310K

Do you have any suggestions for rounding before I convert to text?

 

Thanks
