Power Bi Table number formatting
In Data view, choose your table, choose your column and on the Modeling tab where it says "Auto", (Formatting section) edit this to be 0.
In report, select table, click on the column you want to sort, if it is sorted the wrong way, click again. You can also set a "Sort By" column if you need a special type of sorting.
Found this solution while trying to figure out the decimal places. One thing I'm perplexed about though. I am wondering how this can be done on a column that you are showing as a percent of the total such as below. How do I adjust this to a single decimal place?
Total % Total 9 0.86% 3 0.29% 4 0.38% 6 0.58% 9 0.86% 11 1.06% 6 0.58% 2 0.19% 12 1.15% 14 1.34% See Display units and precision control for table & matrix columns in Power BI Desktop March Feature Summary.
I have the same issue but when i go to modeling tab the formatting section is all greyed out and won't let me select anything?
Hello Greg_Deckler
I have updated my model and set the decimal to 0. After doing that my model is getting currepted.
Is there any way to overcome this?
Thanks in Advance

thanks for the reply, sorting worked out fine.
Table is still not formating properly, screen shots below:
1st screen shot is the table and 2nd screen shot is formatted column from the data tab.
formatting worked too, i had to drop and include the Measure again on the table,
thanks for your help
Yep. You're an allstar @smoupre
where do i find the "data view"?
While on the Designer, you can find the Data View on the left side menu.
Look for the 3 icons shown...
