Hi @Garry030424 ,
Based on your description, I did some testing and this may be due to the size of your data being too different and the inappropriate choice of display effects you used in visualization. Rounding is done when the difference between your data and the selected magnitude is too large.
Million
None

Create a new measure:
Rounded_Sum = ROUND(SUM(YourTable[YourColumn]), 2)
Sometimes, even very tiny decimal values can be present in your data due to precision issues. You can add a calculated column to check for small values and force them to zero:
Corrected_Column = IF(ABS([YourColumn]) < 0.0001, 0, [YourColumn])
If this helped, a Kudos 👍 or Solution mark would be great!

Hello @Garry030424 ,
In excel the values might be saved in that 5E..+02 format. You may have formatted them as number but still their meta data might be the same. So to handle this in Power Query Editor itself start check the values in that number column and fix them there. If you cant fix it there, then please fix it in excel saying it as text and then in Power Query please change it to number.
