    You should calculate KPI Index for such values.

    Please visit KPI Indicator Instructions page of the sample report to fint out how to generate a KPI index properly.

    For the KPI Indicator visual click on the Format tab (the paint roller), and then in KPI General look at the options for Banding Type. The three choices are Increasing is better, Decreasing is better, and Closer is better. You want the middle option by the sounds of it.

Please take a look at this sample report to find out more.

This sample report is actually a step-by-step tutorial.

I wnt trhough the sample but could not find where to map my Increasing is Bad (for my wastage) where the graph should show higher values in red and lower values in green. i.e if i exceed my target of 3% wastage, it should show red (where as for sales, if my actual value is more than target value, it should be green).

 

Please let me know where to map this field.

        Hi, I couldn't find these options under KPI Indicator nor KPI Indicator Value. Are we talking about the same Power KPI Matrix visual?
