Power BI doesn't use decimals

‎06-07-2016 08:14 AM

Hi,

 

Been trying all afternoon to get a dashboard together. Problem is that when I upload data with amounts like 2.5 & 3.6, 

the dasboard adds these up in a graph/table etc. as 2 + 3 = 5 instead of 6.1

 

It's like Power BI doesn't use the decimal numbers...

 

any ideas?

Never mind, 

In the edit query I found that in the "applied steps" window i made 2 (historic) alterations for the data, first I made it a "whole numer" then a couple steps later a "decimal"....deleted the first step and the data came through ok. 

 

Solved, -1 kudo for meself!

 

thanx for the input though!
