Hello,

I've created a table based upon a CSV file. The table contains revenue numbers, and some of them have a value below 0. I found the settings of the column in the table where the range of the column can be adjusted, but whilst the filed indicates the value entered should be between -1.000.000.000 and 1.000.000.000 I can only enter -1.000 as minimum. I can't seem to find the logic nor any other settings where I should be able to change this. Changing the datatype in the query doesn't affect the error.

Help would be much appreciated!

HI Richardmarobert

The issue is likely due to inferred or enforced constraints in the column properties or formatting settings. By ensuring the data type, format, and range properties are configured correctly, you should be able to use the full range of values.

Ensure the column data type is correctly set to support a wide range of numeric values:

In Power Query: Go to Transform Data > Data Type for the column.Set the data type to Decimal Number or Whole Number.
In the Model View (if using Power BI): Select the table > Locate the column > Check the Data Type property in the column settings.

Open the Column Tools in Power BI (or equivalent settings in your platform).
Locate the Column Properties: Ensure there are no Summarization, Formatting, or Value Range settings restricting the values. Modify the Range property to match your desired range (-1,000,000,000 to 1,000,000,000).
If you’ve already made changes in the query editor, ensure you’ve refreshed the data model: Go to Home > Click Refresh in Power BI or your platform. This ensures the model reflects the updated column configuration.
