Hello All,
I have a requirement where I need to apply conditional formatting Like,
If the date is in the past i.e < today then paint it green, if not then determine the formatting based on a Variance measure that i have created. If variance is <0 then paint it green, if >0 and <30 then Amber.
Can someone please help me with this requiremnt as i have to urgently implement this.
Regards

Hi @Kish1999 ,
You can create your measure as below:-
conditional_formt =
IF (
MAX ( table[your_date] ) < TODAY (),
"Green",
IF (
[variance] < 0,
"Green",
IF ( [variance] > 0 && [variance] < 30, "Amber" )
)
)
or
conditional_formt =
IF (
OR ( MAX ( table[your_date] ) < TODAY (), [variance] < 0 ),
"Green",
IF ( [variance] > 0 && [variance] < 30, "Amber" )
)

Here is another measure you can try with a SWITCH function:
FormattingMeasure =
IF (
MAX (Date[Date]) < TODAY(),
"Green",
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
[Variance] < 0, "Green",
[Variance] >= 0 && [Variance] < 30, "Amber",
"Other"
)
)
