Auto format mode with the thousand separator

Hi,

Banks have the auto format for all values , but want the exact value when it's under a million (with thousand separator).
The KPI chart doesn't display correctly the value. 

Keep in mind that there is more than a hundred measures in each apps.

In the main script, the variables are on the ThousandSep & the NumericalAbbreviation.

SET ThousandSep="'";
SET DecimalSep='.';
SET MoneyThousandSep="'";
SET MoneyDecimalSep='.';
SET MoneyFormat='# ##0.00 CHF;-# ##0.00 CHF';
SET TimeFormat='hh:mm:ss';
SET DateFormat='DD.MM.YYYY';
SET TimestampFormat='DD.MM.YYYY hh:mm:ss[.fff]';
SET FirstWeekDay=0;
SET BrokenWeeks=0;
SET ReferenceDay=4;
SET FirstMonthOfYear=1;
SET CollationLocale='fr-CH';
SET CreateSearchIndexOnReload=1;
SET MonthNames='janv.;févr.;mars;avr.;mai;juin;juil.;août;sept.;oct.;nov.;déc.';
SET LongMonthNames='janvier;février;mars;avril;mai;juin;juillet;août;septembre;octobre;novembre;décembre';
SET DayNames='lun.;mar.;mer.;jeu.;ven.;sam.;dim.';
SET LongDayNames='lundi;mardi;mercredi;jeudi;vendredi;samedi;dimanche';
SET NumericalAbbreviation='6:mio;9:mia;12:T;15:P;18:E;21:Z;24:Y;-3:m;-6:μ;-9:n;-12:p;-15:f;-18:a;-21:z;-24:y';
//SET NumericalAbbreviation='3:k;6:M;9:bn;12:T;15:P;18:E;21:Z;24:Y;-3:m;-6:μ;-9:n;-12:p;-15:f;-18:a;-21:z;-24:y';

 

When the number format is set to Number. The value is display with the thousand separator

No problem here

 

When the number format is set to Auto. The value is displays with the abbreviation (more than 1 million)

t_donnet_1-1623660668371.png

 

This is correct

 

When the number format is set to Auto. The value is displays with the abbreviation (less than 1 million, no abbreviation)

No thousand separator


Thanks for your help.
