GenerateSeries function showing 0% as -0%

Hi,

 

Just as the title says, I am using this function GENERATESERIES(-.05,.10,.005) and 0% is appearing as -0%.

 

What exactly do I need to do here to have 0% show normally?

 

Thanks!

Hi @ValueCreate ,

 

Try changing data-type of your percentage column under MOdelling Tab to Fixed Decimal Number  and keep Format to Percentage.

This will get fixed.

 

If this helps and resolves the issue, appreciate a Kudos and mark it as a Solution! 🙂

Hi @ValueCreate ,

 

I tried using the same function, but I don't see such behaviour. Can you put some screenshots around what you are seeing?

Hi! Sure thing here you go-  As you can see on the left when I am on the data page it looks correct. But when I am on the report page and put it in a filter and make it a dropdown, the 0% shows as -0%.
