HI,
I am new to PWBI DAX function. Can anyone help me with correct DAX function to show this number "-0.7%" as (0.7%).
Thanks,
Simky
Hey @deys ,
You can use the ABS function (absolute value).
You can also multiple by -1, "[Column] * -1"
With ABS you could get rid of negative numbers while not impacting the positive numbers.
Sounds more like a measure formatting issue rather than requiring a specific function to do it.
For future reference, a more descriptive thread title would be useful, we kind of know the question will be about a DAX function in the DAX forum
