Hello everyone,
While updating my dashboards this morning, a problem showed up for all of them (different PowerBI files, different dataset, same sharepoint site):
The number fields are no longer recognized for values above 999 because a space is now inserted
However, in Sharepoint List, the fields are correctly displayed and calculated as you can see on the sum.
I don't know why this space got inserted (no changes on SP list, no options to remove it). I tried in powerquery to convert the columns in text and remove the space before to convert back in number. But not working.
Anyone faced the same issue?
Thank you
Solved! Go to Solution.
I partially fixed the issue. It all started when an IT admin changed the regional settings for the sharepoint Site. Consequently, I modified the same for my PowerBI files in settings. If it now works for currency, it still can't recognize the space separator in numbers (local fr-FR). The only solution was to remove separators in the sharepoint list view.
Actually it happens straight from the import. It seems to be an issue of the implementation 2.0 (now) vs 1.0.
It might be a PowerBI version issue (old version still installed on my desktop aside newer one that is now the default app). Waiting for my IT to fix that.
can you share the M code for the step where the error values appear for the first time?
So, I've done different tries but here is the most significant one
- Installed a clean powerBI on a my personal desktop
- Imported the list with 2.0 implementation
Without further processing the error is immediate on the column of type number.
However, when I change to implementation 1.0 ; No problem it works!!!
Then I created a new list on another site with number column type and imported with 2.0 implementation and the error is there,
As this problem appeared overnight, it looks that something happened either on the config of my sites or on the implementation 2.0
The M Code;
let
Source = SharePoint.Tables("xxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/dpp", [Implementation="2.0", ViewMode="All"]),
#"367c959f-4cc5-43db-9c01-d7b8cca74e60" = Source{[Id="367c959f-4cc5-43db-9c01-d7b8cca74e60"]}[Items]
in
#"367c959f-4cc5-43db-9c01-d7b8cca74e60"
The source column config;
