Alert notifications

I setup an alert to notify me when a tile goes above the threshold of $5,350,000.  However, when I received the notification and email, it states that I've reached a threshold of $5M.  How do I format this to reflect $5,350,000 or $5.35M?

You can set data type to Decimal and decimal place to 2. Then your card will display as $5.35M, and once it is above $5.35M, the expected notification will be sent as below.

BTW, you should post need help threads in other forums (e.g. Desktop, Service...) but not Issues forum.

Is there a way to format this better.  Seems a bit clunky to display millions as $5.350001M.
