Conditional column didn't works
Dear expert
I try to set up condtional column but for some reason, it didn't works for all the column. I try to use the exact conditonal to other power bi report and it works fine but not the one i am working for. I attached the screenshot as below and hopefully you can help me to find out what's the issues. I did try to change the column "Style Price" data type to 'whole number', but it not allow me to do so. ('Style Price"column is a insert column on transfer data - gross sales / ordered item qty).
Thank you

According to the error message , I suspect that there are many ‘null’ values in your column ‘discounts’ or column 'Style Price' as shown in the image below.
If this is the case, it is recommended to fill these 'null' values with actual values or filter out these data before creating the conditional column.Best Regards,

Anonymous , You have to do it in power query. On the Home tab in the power query, you have an option.
Or right-click on the Table in Power Query and open the advance editor. There you can change the data type.
refer in my video, I have done it in this - https://youtu.be/h0yLtceT0i4?list=PLPaNVDMhUXGYo50Ajmr4SgSV9HIQLxc8L
