Format Tokens
Format tokens control how values appear in report components. Use them to keep numbers, dates, currency, and percentages consistent across pages.
Common formats
| Need | Example format | Example output |
|---|---|---|
| Whole number | #,##0 | 12,450 |
| Decimal | #,##0.00 | 12,450.25 |
| Percent | 0.0% | 72.4% |
| Currency | $#,##0 | $12,450 |
| Month and year | MMM-yy | May-26 |
| Short date | DD/MM/YYYY | 20/05/2026 |
Good practice
Use the same format for the same measure throughout the report. Do not show one progress value as 0.72, another as 72%, and another as 72.0% unless the difference is intentional.
