Ceiling Function in Report Builder Power BI

Hi Guys!

 

I'm trying to use Ceiling function in one of my projects, however it doesn't do the job.

I'm I doing it wrong?

 

I have created new field with the values of another field and I set the function as ceiling as below:

and add it to the table as column but didn't work:

I have also set the ceiling function in the cell itself:

but still gives the same result with out the ceiling function!

Finally! 

I got the solution..

with Ceiling function we need to divid by 10 then multiply by 10 if I want to round it to nearest 10ths:

=Ceiling(Fields!Sheet1_Budget2.Value / 10) * 10

Hi  @AsNa_92 ,

 

When applying the CEILING() function, make sure that the cell references the field correctly and that the syntax of the CEILING function is correct.

CEILING(<number>, <significance>)

CEILING function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn

Verify that the data type of the field to which the CEILING function is to be applied is numeric.The CEILING function may not work properly on non-numeric data types.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

If I added the:

<significance>

as below:

=Ceiling(Fields!Sheet1_Budget.Value,1) 

 

I get this error:

The 'Value' expression for the field 'Sheet1_Budget2' contains an error: [BC30516] Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'Ceiling' accepts this number of arguments.
