Data Annotation for currency format not working

Question

In my ASP.NET MVC Core web project on VS2015, the following model is displaying data as, e.g., 15481 instead of $15,481 even though I\'m using [D

Answer 1

The currency annotation can be used. However it is just telling MVC which display or editor template to use. As We said current template uses the system currency. You would have to provide custom editor template or display template and some other way to determine the currency symbol to display.Look here at how to provide your own implementations

Try using this

 [DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:C0}")]

Example

public class Sales
{
    [Key]
    public int SalesId { get; set; }

    [DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:C0}")]
    public float? SaleAmount { get; set; }
}
