@zhandos , if you are getting 2 decimal places from the source then you have lost the information. (means you have query or view that rounded it off to 2 decimal place)

 

In power bi, make sure you are not rounding off in formula like

 

sumx(Table, round(Table[Value],2))

 

Then it should work fine. Check measure or column tools and you can change decimal place to 3
