@adnankabina , You have use format Function that will make it text meausre Assume Qty is meausre of use sum(Table[Qty])

Switch(True() ,

Max(Table[Unit]) = "Unit", format([Qty], "#,###") ,

format([Qty], "#,###,000")

)

Hi @adnankabina ,

For your requirement, you need to convert the data type as text type.

You can create the following calculated column.

expected = SWITCH([unit],"each",FORMAT([qty],"#,###"),"kg",FORMAT([qty],"#,##0.000"))

As you can see, the calculated column is text type. If you want to use this field in a new calculated column or measure, you can use the VALUE function or use the original qty column.
