Hi,

 

you can just simply change the formating of the new measure as below:

1-create new measure: 

New Measure = CALCULATE(SUM(TableName[ColumnName])) + 0
 
2- change the formatting of the new measure

#,0.00;(#,0.00);"-"

Hi @nehamaru1985 -Can you modify the formulae as below:

 

__M Cost K$ =
VAR __MCostK = DIVIDE(CALCULATE(SUM('Drivers'[Allocation]), 'Drivers'[Measurement] = "PH"), 1000)
RETURN
IF(
NOT(ISBLANK(__MCostK)),
FORMAT(__MCostK, "0.00"), -- Formats the number as a string
"-"
)

 

Let me know if this works for you!
