Hi Vitulgaur,

For Percentage sign in the row go to the Properties of the chart => Number Tab = select the Expression => then under the Number Format setting click on the integer and then click on the show in Percentage. then Apply.

Hello:

If your looking for different number format in the same column, that should be based on some condition.

With that assumption, have written the following expression:

Expression: =if(Sum(py1) > 1, Num(Sum(py1), '#,##0'), Num(Sum(py1), '#,##0%'))

Have attached the QVW with a similar example, hope that helps..

Thanks,

Hi,

As said in earlier example you have to use a conditional statement as if so you can differentiate between the rows to identify when to use % and when not to.

then using num() function which gives you required formats.

One very important point to note here is that after using num function, you should make sure that under Number Tab you have chosen number format as Expression default, then only this num() function format will be picked.

Hi,

Vitul it will not be possible to use the % sign for random cell's you need to define the rules for that, for example if number goes beyond some value or if it decreases below this value.

Please define the rule and then use expression suggested by Nilesh.

Hi Vitul,

If you follow Narasimha K advice you should be able to get it to work.

or else, you can tell us that what is your criteria to decide if a row is a % amount ??

Then , we can help you to write this Query.

Hi,

It can be done in two ways,

first you can use expression as

if(dimension='rate',num( p1,'#0 ')&'%',num( p1,'#0'))

if(dimension='rate',num( p1/100,'#0 %'),num( p1,'#0'))

Hi,

Don't use NUM# rather use NUM

Num# is to process input while Num is to show output.

Hi,

The problem seems with your expression which you have written.

Does this expression gives you value?

Can you first try it in a text object?

Just try it in a text object first, if it gives you any numeric value then num function will give you % value.

Try this, if it works!

num((sum({$< cola={1},col2={'J'},col3={'K'} >}Interest)/sum({$< cola={1},col2={'J'},col3={'K'},LTAC_IND={'*'}-{'Y'} >}Ip))*100,'##%')
