DAX Format amount with auto display units

Hi,

 In a calculated measure, I have a amount field calculated and append with some custom string. I want to format numeric portion of measure with auto display units. When i use "$#,##0,,M" as format spec it displays with million always even values are lesser than million. Is there auto display units in DAX instead of specifying as million in format string ?
