Percentage Format from Data Model not reflecting in pivot table

Stilish — Sat, 27 Jun 2020 15:25:04 GMT

Hi there

I have set up a data model from which I have created a pivot table. I have fields where the data type format in the data model is percentage. This format reflects in the field filter drop down but displays as decimal in the pivot table column label.

See images from pivot table and then in the data model:

How do I fix this?

Thanks

Thanks AntrikshSharma

That does help a lot.

However, how do I retain the 2 decimal point format? i.e. 0.50% and 1.00% instead of 0.5% and 1% as per below:

Many thanks

0.5, 0.1, 0.75 are decimal numbers so their percentage counterparts would be 50%, 10%, and 75%

Hi AntrikshSharma

The problem is my decimals are 0.0010, 0.0020, .....0.0100, 0.0125,00.0150 that I want to display as 0.10%, 0.20%, ....1.00%, 1.25%, 1.50%, etc.

Do you know how I could achieve that?

Thanks again for all your assistance.
