hi @Anonymous 

It should be that you need to adjust the data

For example:

0.4% = 0.004

If we show it not as a percent format and as two decimal places, it will show 0.00

Then in power bi data view, we need to format the dataformat as percent.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Is the value on your table a Calculated Column?

 

If so you will need to update the data type as this may not be inferred from the source column.
