Abbreviate Option for Facts

Chris Allies

The "Abbreviate" option should be able to format to either thousands, millions or billions for the whole visualisation.

Because it only rounds to the nearest thousand, million or billion depending on what the value is, you end up with confusing summaries in tables, like the below. As you can see, a user scanning this will get confused very quickly because the third column, first row should really read "£0.3m" rather than "£334k".

There should either be an option at the global visualisation level or an option to specify the rounding.

I second this idea Chris. When linking to external reports, its important that the rounding conventions stay the same as much as possible so we don't confuse the report consumers. This would be very helpful for my team as well!

Hey Chris, great idea! I am going to reclassify this idea into the Oracle Analytics Cloud and Server Idea Lab so that it gets more exposure since it affects both products (FAW & OAC), and the Product Managers who would consider this functionality frequent that lab more often.
