Need help with the Format Conversion

Hello Everyone,

 

Is there any possibility to convert the "0.00%" format to a number format.

 

Since by using VALUE() function we can convert the "0" or "0,000" format to a number format.

 

Would really appreciate the help in this matter.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Harsh

    Anonymous , just check % sign is check (In dark grey when check), then you can revert it. else you have create a new column divide by 100

     

    New Column = [Percent]/100 //number data type

      Hello Amit,

       

      I've written a DAX and below is the example of my DAX - 

       

      RLU Act Vs Bud = VAR Currentitem = SELECTEDVALUE(RLUKeyMeasures[Retirement Living Unit]) RETURN SWITCH(TRUE(), CurrentItem = “Occupancy” , FORMAT([RLU Act Occupancy%]-[RLU Bud Occupancy%], “0.0%”), CurrentItem = “Vacant Units”, VALUE(FORMAT([RLU Act Vacant Units] -1+[RLU Bud Vacant Units], “0”)), CurrentItem = “Vacant units recurrent charges”, VALUE(FORMAT([RLU Act Vacant Units Recurrent charges] -1+[RLU Bud Vacant Units Recurrent charges], “0,000”)), BLANK())

       

      In this I've used VALUE() Function in order to convert the format of "0" or "0,000" but not able convert the "0.00%" since it throws back the back stating that it cannot the "XX.XX%" type text to the number.

       

      Here's the screen shot attached for the reference.

       

      Thanks & Regards,
