Hello
Does anyone know how to perform conditional formatting with calculation items? I have seen there have been some previous posts about this but for some reason the solutions don't for me, perhaps this is because of updates?
Any help would be v gratefully received!

Hi @tloup ,
Based on my testing, please try the following methods:
1.Create the sample table.
2.Create the measure to calculate the sum.
Measure = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Total Sold]), ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[day]))
3.Create the measure for conditional formatting.
conditional format =
var _sel = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[day])
return
IF(_sel = DATE(2024,3,23),"Yellow")
4.Drag the date into table visual. Right click on the measure and select conditional formatting.
5.Select Field value and select the conditional format measure.
6.The result is shown below.
You can also view the following documents to learn about conditional formatting.
