DAX variance measure returns -Poe/Poe values

[Krzysztof_Hyla]

Why this measure returns -Poe/Poe values instead of numbers?

Here is how it looks like in my report:

Hello, @Krzysztof_Hyla

According to your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario. The pbix file is attached at the end.

Mesa:

Measures:

Actual = SUM('Table'[Actual Value])

Budget = SUM('Table'[Budget Value])

Variance = [Actual]-[Budget]

Result:

I would like to suggest that you check if you have applied the custom formatting for the measure as shown below.

Best regards

Your Variance measure is supposed to return a number if Actual and Budget measures are returning numbers. Check the logic in the Conditional Formatting.
