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,

Hi Anonymous ,

 

The principle is that data in a column needs to be in the same data format.

Try to delete value function.

VALUE

Custom numeric formats for the FORMAT function
