Rounding Off Automatically

I have the following list in power query

When it is exported to the desktop, it is rounded up automatically; even though, the format is decimal.

Any ideas about why this is happening.

@MarioCadena ,Open Data Transformation/Edit Query. Check The data Type there It should number/decimal not int.

 

Or Right click on the table and open Advance Editor. And Check for this column. This should Number/numeric. Not INT64. If it is int change it to number.

 

Please keep a backup file, before doing this.

 

 

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.
