Calculation items and display units
- 4 years ago
Anonymous,
I would disable the display units and put the logic in the calculation item. For example, if you want to display an amount in thousands, in the calculation item do the following:
1. Divide the result by 1,000.
2. Use the format string expression "#,##0K".

Have you tried setting the Format String Expression for each calculation item? This is done in Tabular Editor.

My format string expressions are pretty simple currently. For the variance items, I am only using the following:
