Hello,
how can i get different row data type in a Matrix.
For example Measure MTD, row A = integer, B percentage and C = numeric with 2 decimals.
Thanks for your help

HI, @carloscabreraq
After my test, you could try this way as below:
Use FORMAT Function with IF/ SWITCH in your formula of measure.
For example:
Measure =
VAR _A =
CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Qty] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Type] = "MTD" ) )
RETURN
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[ID] ) = "A",
FORMAT ( _A, "0" ),
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[ID] ) = "B",
FORMAT ( _A, "0.0%" ),
IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[ID] ) = "C", FORMAT ( _A, "0.00" ) )
)
)
Measure 2 = VAR _A =
CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Qty] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Type] = "LMTD" ) )
RETURN
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[ID] ) = "A",
FORMAT ( _A, "0" ),
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[ID] ) = "B",
FORMAT ( _A, "0%" ),
IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[ID] ) = "C", FORMAT ( _A, "0.00" ) )
)
)
By the way, for B percentage, FORMAT ( _A, "0.0%" ) and FORMAT ( _A, "0%" ) is used for decimals.
