Format cell row-wise instead of column-wise (field wise)

[JasMack]

Hi all,

I have a table which looks as follows:

Particular	Prior Month (Period <2)	Year to date
Cost	450	825
Revenue	690	1370
Profit %	0.533333333	0.660606061
Units Sold	10	700

But I want it to be formatted as the following table that is by row.

Particular	Prior Month (Period <2)	Year to date
Cost	£ 450.00	£ 825.00
Revenue	£ 690.00	£ 1,370.00
Profit %	53.33%	66.06%
Units Sold	10	700

Can you please help me to achieve this?

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Jason

Hi @JasMack,

Current power bi does not support shows multiple formats in one value field, if you want to display different formats, you need to convert this field data type to text at first.

Then you can use Dax format to replace and format current results based on conditions.

Measure formulas:

P<2 = 
VAR currPart =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Particular] )
VAR val =
    SUM ( 'Table'[Prior Month (Period <2)] )
RETURN
    FORMAT (
        val,
        IF (
            currPart IN { "Cost", "Revenue" },
            "Currency",
            IF ( currPart = "Profit %", "Percent", "Standard" )
        )
    )

YTD = 
VAR currPart =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Particular] )
VAR val =
    SUM ( 'Table'[Year to date] )
RETURN
    FORMAT (
        val,
        IF (
            currPart IN { "Cost", "Revenue" },
            "Currency",
            IF ( currPart = "Profit %", "Percent", "Standard" )
        )
    )
