Conditional formatting

Mussaka — Wed, 08 Feb 2023 12:56:04 GMT

Hi.

I should create a measure in DAX that simultaneously returns:

- if x < 0 then "over threshold"

- if x < 100 "close threshold"

- if x > 100 "within the threshold"

- if x < 50 (but only for CERTAIN people, for example "NY") "close threshold"

Where x is a measure that contains a "delta"

Did anyone understand me?

Thank you

Mussaka , Assume you have measure X

Then a new measure

Switch(true(),

[X] < 0 , "over threshold" ,

[X] < 100 , "close threshold" ,

"within the threshold")

Same way you can create color measure and use that in conditional formatting using field value option

Switch(true(),

[X] < 0 , "Red" ,

[X] < 100 , "yellow" ,

"green")

The problem is that "x" is not a measure, but a column; this is because I need to use it in a filter:(

The criteria must be the following:

- if (name of the table[measure]<0, "over threshold"

- if (name of the table[measure]<100, "close threshold"

- if (name of the table[measure]<50, (only for a determined number of persons, for example "english")"close threshold"

Hi Mussaka ,

I have created a simple sample, please refer to it to see if it helps you.

Create a measure.

result = IF([valuemeasure]<0,"over threshodl",IF([valuemeasure]>0&&[valuemeasure]<100,"close threshold",IF([valuemeasure]<50&&MAX('Table'[country])="english","close threshold",BLANK())))

I have to create a slicer with 3 boxes: "over threshold", close threshold", "within the threshold" and I have 4 categories of people, "Chinese", "English" “italian”, “Spanish”. In the first box there must be all the people (Chinese, English, Italian e Spanish ) which have a negative number as a result of a measure (which is a delta). In the second box: if "Chinese" from 0 to 50 (this because their threshold is 100), if other countries from 0 to 100 (the threshold is 200); in the third box all the other possibilities except those just described.

If correct, the slicer will return in a table only the names of the people in the 3 categories I mentioned above. I hope I have been clear enough.

Thanks in any case for the help you will know give me.

Best regards

In my previous request I was referencing a table where a person had a single row, but now I realize that a person can have multiple rows based on the reporting period. So, one row for January, one for February and so on. If I apply the same measure you suggested, it gives me an error. I also tried to create and then merge another table in which I grouped all the rows, but for the type of work I have to do it is necessary that the rows, while adding together, keep the value present in each row . It is very complex to explain, I hope someone understands and suggests a solution. Thanks in advance

Thank you very much!

How could I apply the formula you showed me to create a conditional formatting with the colors in the icons? I mean...IF('OT_fact (1) original'[Annual Delta Treshold vs. OT]>=100,"Within Threshold" (one color of the icon, for example yellow circle), IF('OT_fact (1) original'[Annual Delta Treshold vs. OT]<0,"Above Threshold", (another icon color, for example blue circle), IF('OT_fact (1) original'[Annual Delta Treshold vs. OT]<= 50&&'OT_fact (1) original'[Roster.CCNL UPDATED]="CREDIT","Near Credit" (another color) and so on....

Thank you again
