Data Label Auto Generation Issues

‎01-03-2020 12:06 PM

Currently the way the data labels work is that you either set them to auto or you set them to the tens denomination that you want. Howerver, I have data that is drillable. It goes from high levels that are in the hundred millions to low levels which may have only 20 as the number. The operations director does not like how the 480 million is showing as .48bn but if I change the data label to be millions it will stay that way for all the drill downs. I was hoping there was a work around for this to make her happy.

@reh169 unfortunately I don't think you can set the unit for data label at each hierarchy level, whatever it is set to  Auto or other applied to all levels. I guess you have post this as an idea on ideas forum if this doesn't exists already.
