Importing percentages (or decimals) from excel

[seaborne]

Hello,

When importing percentages from Excel into Power BI, the number shows as either a 0 or 1. I have checked the Modeling tab (column is set to Data Type = Decimal Number, Format = Decimal Number, 2 Decimal Places). I have checked the Query Editor (column is set to Data Type = Decimal Number). I have checked the Excel sheet (column is set to Number with 2 Decimal Places). In Excel, the column contains 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00. 

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi @seaborne ,
Started with a fresh Excel Book, saved the numbers as a table,  closed the book, opened fresh PBI, Get Data, selected the table in the book, and opened a report. Seems to work fine. Then went back to the report and typed a 0 into field formatting, decimals. Do see a zero or one now.

Let me know if you have any questions.

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos are nice too.
