How to Center Data In a Column?

I'm creating a dashboard to be used for our executives.  What I'm noticing is a lack of formatting within the columns. There doesn't appear to be a right/center/left position format option.  My data looks funny within the table.

I searched and found this from many years ago, which said there wasn't the abilty to format. Please tell me there is now?

@KaiPonte,

 

You can do this in the format pane, Specific column. Select the series (column), and set the alignment. You can also specify whether to apply to the header, total, or values.
