NaN Errors

Hi,

 

Can NaN-values/errors occur for other reasons than dividing by 0? In my case, it get NaN erros in my measures eventhough i'm using the divide funciton?

 

Hope you guys can help me 🙂

  • Hi au564589 ,

     

    If your denominator is 0 and you use “/”, there will be NaN.

     

     

    If you don’t want to show the NaN, you can use the DIVIDE function, and configure the third parameter.

     

     

    Or maybe you can refer the following thread, hope they help.

    If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please provide a mockup sample based on fake data?

    It will be helpful if you can show us the exact expected result based on the tables.
