You can use the FORMAT function.

FORMAT([measure], "#,,.0M")

You can read more about user-defined formats here:

You're missing a comma after your measure

That's because you passing in a column rather than a measure.

Wrap that column in an aggregation function or reference a measure instead and try again.

FORMAT(SUM(pipeline[Total Value Of Potential Sale (USD)]), "#,,.0M")

When you were using that column seemingly without the SUM before adding the FORMAT function, Power BI created an implicit measure that did the aggregation, but you can't reference implicit measures.

Hello, I tried this and it did convert my values but i can't format the data values in multi-row card. Any work around for this.
