Y-axis Percentage Display

Hello everyone,

Could you please advise me on how to add a bit of space before the percentage? I've tried adding space before the percentage value and other methods, but they haven't worked for the start week. Interestingly, it seems to work for the start week but not for the end week. Logic (Last 5 weeks)

 

Thanks!

Hi @Maivish_Mirza - Create a below measure with format function 

 

Change the table and columns as per your reference: highlighted one is important

ActualVsBudgetVariancePct =
VAR percentage = DIVIDE([Varience], CALCULATE(SUM(FAB[Amount]),FAB[Category]="Actual"), 0)
RETURN
"  " & FORMAT(percentage, "0.00 %")

2.Second, select the "Column tool" and, of course, measure values, calculate columns as well: as shown below:

Hi, @rajendraongole1

Thanks for the quick advice. However, I'm facing an issue where the percentage starts at the beginning of the week and ends at the end of the last 5 weeks in an area chart.
