Bar Chart not showing correct Number Format

[hlines_usacs]

Hello,

I have a bar chart with the below expression for measures. Basically, I want to display the values on the bar chart as "$1.23 M" or if the value is less than one million, it should display as "$4.56 K".

IF(<expression>/1000000 <=1,

  Num(<expression>/1000,'$ #,##0.0 K'),

  Num(<expression>/1000000,'$ #,##0.0 M')

)

When I put the same expression into a table, it displays the correct number format. When I have the expression in the bar chart, is just shows as "1.23". Any ideas as to why the bar chart doesn't reflect the correct number format?

Thanks!

It was not working because I wanted the dollar sign displayed also. I did find a solution. I removed all the excess formatting from the measure and had just the measure (without the IF and num function) and then changed the format to Custom. The very last comment (from Thomas Trolez) gave me the correct displayed format and I added the dollar sign in front.

Use 'A' in the custom formula

#,##0.00 A

Format Number (in Thousand)
