You can format:
Units that represent magnitude, such as M for millions, to display in tooltips.
Suffixes
Currency symbols for measure values to display in tooltips and axis labels.
The number of decimal places to display in tooltips.
For other table formatting options, such as the default Grand Total for measures, see Creating a Table in Visualizer.
