Resolution

  • The Formatting Dialogue box works as a  template,  we can use for different type of calculations.  Here in this case ,  the calculation is related to currency.  In another example,   If we are calculating the measures with percentages ,  then the expected result will be like 2 %. If the measures are with kilometers , the result will be like 4 km etc.. 
  •    To change the Formatting specific to currency , Please use SAP influence site links to send your inputs for the future releases.
