How to get a label to display N/A when there is no data

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi,

 

I have lables that pull data from a sql server. So field for different rcord dont have any data and i would like to be able to populate them with "N/A" instead of leaving them blank.

 

Ive tried changing the data type of the record to nchar but the numbers have lost there decimal places and looks very untidy.

 

Is there a formula in powerapps that allows me to do this?

 

I have attached an image to show the current set up.

 

All fields are set to data type nchar(10)

 

Regards,

David

    Something like:

     

    Default: If(IsBlank(FieldToCheck), "N/A", FieldToCheck)

    You can format numbers with the Text function like so...

     

    Text( Value("1234.59"), ".#" )

    More complete documentation on this function can be found here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/functions/function-text (you'll want to scroll to the number examples near the bottom)
