Suppressing very low negative values

How can i  suppress the very low negative values in power bi reports?

 

I am calculating a metric as a percentage using DAX. In a ideal suitivation the values will be present with acceptable + or - values. e.g. 4.2, 12.3, -33.1

 

How ever in exceptional suitivation the values are so low that the precentage calculation is -7720879273890906.0 

I want to suppress it to 0. 

 

Where and how can i suppress it to 0.

 

Hope to hear form experts who handle such exceptions.

Hi Guys, 

My applogise for the late response. 

 

I appreciate the solutions provided for the outliers. It gave me different prespectives.

 

I addressed it in the data prepration phase i.e. before the data is sucked by Power BI. This is just a alternative way for  addressing the outliers. 

 

Thanks to all the people who have contributed. Much appreciated.
