Hello,
I use dax Gross profit margin =Divide (Gross profit, Income)*100 formula. My income is zero in Month of May. After division returns enormous number.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Try using the ROUND function on your fields before dividing. Or alternatively do the rounding in Power Query so they're stored with the right number of significant digits.
Hi @Justas -
DIVIDE has a 3rd parameter, which you set the value if the result would otherwise throw an error.
Gross profit margin =Divide (Gross profit, Income, 0)*100
Hope this helps

Nothing chages if I put alternate rezult 0 in Divide formula
Sorry, I read the question wrong.
Check your data that Income is actually 0. Often times when things are sourced from Excel or other financial applications, what looks to be 0 will be something like 1.2e-6 (.00000012) which rounds to 0 in 2 decimal places but isn't 0.
In your case Income would be approx 4.5e-7 (0.000000045) based on the results shown.
Hope this helps

In excel Credit-Debit shows 0,00E+00, but then calculates margin denominator (income) seems to be not equal to zero. I do not know what to do!
Try using the ROUND function on your fields before dividing. Or alternatively do the rounding in Power Query so they're stored with the right number of significant digits.
My new formula:
Gross profi margin %=Divide([Gross Profit],round([Revenue],2))*100
In excel mannualy made decimal places to check if any other numbers after comma not equal to 0. Income calculates Credit-Debit and result from operatios equals to zero (see difference below):
Is any formula or method in excel to check that data is really 0?
In Query I found last decimal space with number 7, but in excel shows 8873,2000000000. What to do 😞 ?
