Thousand-Separator-and-Decimal-Separator

I have a report with numbers separated by commas when it's thousands.

and I have decimal numbers or percentages separated by points

but when I publish on the web these digits change, that is, the thousand separator is a point and the decimal separator is a comma.

 

On the Desktop Separator for commaOn the Desktop Separator for commaOn the Web Separator for pointOn the Web Separator for point

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Please go to Power BI service check which settings you are using: 

 

  1. In the Power BI service, select the Settings icon Settings icon > Settings.
  2. On the General tab > Language.

For example, if you choose Turkish - Türkçe, the thousands separator is a dot and decimal separator is a comma. 

 

You can set language to English, then you will get your expected result as in Power BI desktop.
