Hello,
I have a table like this.
ID | Index | Start Date | Finish Date | Days | Status | Alert |
1 | AW2 | 01/09/2023 | 16/11/2023 | 76 | On Going | |
2 | AD3 | 02/08/2023 | 16/10/2023 | 75 | On Going | |
3 | AF5 | 03/08/2023 | 17/11/2023 | 106 | On Going | |
4 | AH3 | 04/08/2023 | 11/10/2023 | 68 | On Going | |
5 | DD1 | 05/08/2023 | 05/09/2023 | 31 | Finish |
I want to create an alert column with the condition that if the completion date column is less than 30 days from the current date then the alert column is yellow.
If the completion date column is later than today's date then the alert column is red.
However, if the status column is complete then the alert column is black
I ask for input on this matter
Thank you

Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi,
I think my understanding of the logic was wrong.
I tried to fix it and please check the below picture and the attached pbix file if it suits your requirement.
thank you so much
Hi,
I am not sure if I understood your question correctly about the red yellow color condition, but please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.
One of many ways to achieve this is,
- create a measure [Alert:]
- configure conditional background color
- configure conditional font color that exactly the same as the background color in order not to show the result of the [Alert:] measure.
Alert : =
IF ( HASONEVALUE ( Data[ID] ), "Alert" )
Alert rules measure: =
VAR _today =
TODAY ()
VAR _result =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
SELECTEDVALUE ( Data[Finish Date] ) > _today, "Red",
SELECTEDVALUE ( Data[Finish Date] ) > _today - 30, "Yellow"
)
RETURN
_result
Alert rules font color: =
VAR _today =
TODAY ()
VAR _result =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
SELECTEDVALUE ( Data[Finish Date] ) > _today, "Red",
SELECTEDVALUE ( Data[Finish Date] ) > _today - 30, "Yellow",
"White"
)
RETURN
_result
Thank you in advance and I apologize for any inconvenience. However, there are some discrepancies that need to be addressed. Specifically, ID 2 should be marked in red as it has exceeded the completion date. On the other hand, ID 3 should not remain in white, since its completion date is still far away.
