1. On your Google sheet, go to Tools -> Script Editor

2. On the page, copy and paste the contents of FORMATNUMBER.js

3. Name the script 'Format Number' (or whatever you desire...)

4. Click on File -> Save & click on the play button

5. Your script should be ready. Try and type '=NUMBERFORMAT(5000)' to test the installation

Number: 28349586 in Cell A1

By default, the function will determine if 'K', 'M' or 'B' is the correct suffix and round to zero decimals

Formula: =FORMATNUMBER(A1, 0)

Result: 28M

The number of decimals can be selected using the second token

Formula: =FORMATNUMBER(A1, 2)

Result: 28.35M

Finally, the default suffix can be overriden

Formula: =FORMATNUMBER(G17,0,"K")

Result: 28,350K

Use away, as your heart desires
