Thanks for the swift response.

 

So I've started up Power Bi desktop and chose to:

Get Data > Power Bi > Power Bi Datasets >Connect

Chose the Sales force Sales Rep dataset from My workspace

 

Once the dataset had loaded I then proceeeded to create a test cart showing the "Amount" field from my test data

The amount shows in dolalrs, yet the Formating options on the Modeling tab are greyed out

Please see screenshot

 

Thanks
