Hi shrmehta,

Could you please share the screenshot of the wrong format data in table visuals?

I created mine and it displays well.

By the way, it is also available to change the data type under report View (we need to click on the value column first to make the Modeling available), check if it will have any difference when changing the format or data types.

Regards

Hi v-micsh-msft

 

Here is the data as it is displayed in my report

I checked both data columns and report view and they both display the same formatting. Doesn't change if I change the Data Type from decimal number to whole number

    Hi Shruti,

     

    Well this seems to be a little werid.

    Hover the mouse cursor at the thousands seperator, would it make any difference regarding the data in table visuals?

    By the way, Microsoft Power BI Desktop now have the October update available, download and install to check if this issue would insist:

      Hi v-micsh-msft

       

      Hovering shows the same format of comma seperator. I updated to October version and the screenshot I shatred was October version.
