Hi @madji,

 

We can see from your snapshot that the data type of "discount" is "whole number" while 0.5 is a decimal number. If we change the data type of "discount" into "Decimal number", the error will be gone.

Hello,

 

It seems to be an issue with regional settings, either you have your data source with english format, and power bi with... russian? or the other way.

 

To solve that, you can either change the regional settings in both places, or.... replace values on the query editor, . for , 😄
