Formatting Data in BI Dashboard Controls

• Apr 02, 2025

The DevExpress Dashboard allows you to customize various data format settings for numeric and date-time values. For instance, you can convert numbers to strings that show a currency amount (123.456 → $123.46). Date-time values can be formatted using different patterns (for example, Monday, June 15, 2009, or 6/15/2009).

You can apply formatting at two levels.

Dashboard level (currency only).Formatting is applied across the dashboard.Dashboard item level (numeric and date-time formatting).Formatting is applied to individual measure or dimension values of the specific dashboard item.
