Auto format mode with the thousand separator

Hi,

Banks have the auto format for all values , but want the exact value when it's under a million (with thousand separator).
The KPI chart doesn't display correctly the value. 

Keep in mind that there is more than a hundred measures in each apps.

In the main script, the variables are on the ThousandSep & the NumericalAbbreviation.

SET ThousandSep="'";
SET DecimalSep='.';
SET MoneyThousandSep="'";
SET MoneyDecimalSep='.';
SET MoneyFormat='# ##0.00 CHF;-# ##0.00 CHF';
SET TimeFormat='hh:mm:ss';
SET DateFormat='DD.MM.YYYY';
SET TimestampFormat='DD.MM.YYYY hh:mm:ss[.fff]';
SET FirstWeekDay=0;
SET BrokenWeeks=0;
SET ReferenceDay=4;
SET FirstMonthOfYear=1;
SET CollationLocale='fr-CH';
SET CreateSearchIndexOnReload=1;
SET MonthNames='janv.;févr.;mars;avr.;mai;juin;juil.;août;sept.;oct.;nov.;déc.';
SET LongMonthNames='janvier;février;mars;avril;mai;juin;juillet;août;septembre;octobre;novembre;décembre';
SET DayNames='lun.;mar.;mer.;jeu.;ven.;sam.;dim.';
SET LongDayNames='lundi;mardi;mercredi;jeudi;vendredi;samedi;dimanche';
SET NumericalAbbreviation='6:mio;9:mia;12:T;15:P;18:E;21:Z;24:Y;-3:m;-6:μ;-9:n;-12:p;-15:f;-18:a;-21:z;-24:y';
//SET NumericalAbbreviation='3:k;6:M;9:bn;12:T;15:P;18:E;21:Z;24:Y;-3:m;-6:μ;-9:n;-12:p;-15:f;-18:a;-21:z;-24:y';

No problem here

 

When the number format is set to Auto. The value is displays with the abbreviation (more than 1 million)

t_donnet_1-1623660668371.png

 

This is correct

 

When the number format is set to Auto. The value is displays with the abbreviation (less than 1 million, no abbreviation)

No thousand separator


Thanks for your help.
