Hi @Anonymous ,

The data type of a column is fixed, it cannot have both percentage and number, so you can only do it in measure, you can directly create a measure.

Measure =
IF (
    MAX ( 'Table'[Type] ) = "Approval",
    FORMAT ( SUM ( 'Table'[Score] ), "0%" ),
    MAX ( 'Table'[Score] )
)

Get the result.

Hi,

Thanks for taking time to respond me. % for approval is summing up. I need to visulaize it as it is.

Ex: 

TypeMeasure
A1
Approval90%
B2
C3
D4
E5
Approval92%

Hi @Anonymous ,

In a visual, the same items are automatically accumulated, if you don't want this, you need to add a new column to distinguish them, for example a index column.

@Anonymous , That will make you measure as text type meausre

Create a score measure

score m=  sum(Table[Score])

 

 

then try like

if(Max(Table[Type]) = "Approval"), format([score m],"percent"), , format([score m],"number") )
