Decimal and rollup

Hello all as you can see in the screenshot below I am getting the following number format when using AUTO. I have been asked by some folks on the team whether it is possible to maintain the same but with only one decimal in all cases, not 1 and 2 depending on the amount. Also while maintaining the K, M and G at the end.

Hi Alex,

If you round off to one decimal it will become -77.0M.  Try below expression.

=Num(Num#('-76.97M', '#,###.00M'), '#,###.0M')

OR

Try =Left('-76.97M', 5) & 'M'

Regards,

Jagan.

Hi Alex, You probably might have tried this already but want to check anyway:  What happens when you select Number formatting as 'Custom' (instead of auto) and in the Format pattern text box  use this : "#,##0.0"

Hi Alex,

Change the auto to number and set custom properties in the format field: typpe in : #,##0.# M

This will limit it to 1 decimal only.
