Conditional decimals

Hi, I have a Measure and it's calculating correctly, Initially I've a requirement from user to always display only one Decimal UP on a Matrix Visual. so I've used ROUNDUP([SalesAvg],1).

But the isue is in the Matrix Visual, when I drilldown there are so many scnearios value is like 0.001, 0.04, 0.07 and because Decimal as 1 in the Modeling tab, it is defaulting to 0.1 (UP) always.

 

But in these scenarios User wants to display 2 decimals instead of 1.

 

Is there a way to define number of decimals conditionally like something below.

 

IF( [SalesAvg] < 0.1, ROUNDUP([SalesAvg], 2)
                             , ROUNDUP([SalesAvg], 1 ) )

then I selected Format--> General, Decimals--> AUTO (if I select Format as 'Decimal Number' there is no AUTO option.)

But this statement is always displaying 2 decimals.

 

Thank you!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Don't know what is the upper level of the matrix but you should place a measure similar to the one below replacing the Column name with the lowest level:

Measure =
IF (
    HASONEFILTER ( 'Table'[cat2] );
    FORMAT ( ROUNDUP ( [SalesAvg]; 2 ); "0.00" );
    FORMAT ( ROUNDUP ( [SalesAvg]; 1 ); "0.0" )
)

This will make the 2 decimal and format with the number of decimal places you need.
