Hi @KMucching 

Did you use the following measure

Measure = FORMAT(1345164879.98,"#,###,,M")

After testing, it can work, you can refer to the following picture, but the data type of the number will become text.

Hi! Thanks for your answer and your time,

 

I did it like you said, but the problem is that the number is converted to text and I still have to do some operations with the number,

 

Regards,
