Change the format of measure

Hello guys,

 

I have now a list of business indicators :

each of them has his own format, for exemple: [C.A.] is Euro

Besides, i have another list of measure in order to show all the indicators in this year :

WeChat Image_20180831120744.png

JourN = CALCULATE([Indicateurs];DATEADD(Dim_Date[DateKey];0;DAY))

MoisN = CALCULATE([Indicateurs];DATESMTD(Dim_Date[DateKey]))

... ...

 

In my report, i have a chart to show all the indicators according to the sales department of each time period, so i create a slicer ([indicateursN)] to choose different indicators, but the data didn't show in their orginal format.

For exemple: I choose C.A. from the slicer, it shows just the number, but i want it to present its orginal format: £15958 ... ...

Is there any way presenting the date in thier orginal format?

 

Thanks!!!

Hi@ C_Jiang

After my research , I'm afraid it couldn't achieve in Power BI for now .when you add a new measure ,you need to change the

Format of it individually, and it will not inherit the format of parent measure.

For your requirement , you could post your new idea in Power BI ideas and make this feature coming sooner .
