I have a dimension with several KPI's in order to dynamically pass these KPI's to charts and other visuals. The problem is that some of this indicators/measures, are in currency format, others percentages, others number and I need a way to apply the format dynamically.... something similar to custom format of SSAS Cubes

RE: dynamic measure format

my customers really want this. they are unhappy to see only 1 format for the $ amounts while they want different format. half of my users are unhappy.

RE: dynamic measure format

We can set the switch to use different text formatting for each result by wrapping each line with a FORMAT function That is a useful workaround, definitely not a full solution.
