I am stuck on a scorecard report I am building. I have isolated the problem in the attached report you can find through the link at the bottom.
Basically there is an indicator dimension and a fact table with a value per indicator per month.
Some indicators should be shown as a percentage and some as a value. The final report shows multiple columns: MTD, YTD, MoM change %, YoY change %, % target MTD, % target YTD.
I now fixed it using a calculation group with a calculated item per indicator. In the attached report, this results in the calculation group "Indicator formating".
This approach worked fine in the full report, but now I get the error message "This visual has exceeded the available resources. Try filtering to decrease the amount of data displayed." The full report should show about 70 indicators in a table with 10 columns.
Is there a more intellegent way to show the different formats in my example, generating less calculations?

Hi @jvandyck ,
Please try to create dynamic format for measures.
