Hi All,
I have a requirement where i need to show one column values in color based on other text column
for Ex: i have 2 columns
| Processing type | Hop_name |
| Failed | MDC |
| Success | GHC |
| Inprogress | PHC |
if processing type is failed then HOP_name column should show red color , if processing type is success then green else yellow in hop_name column
can anyone suggest
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Manjula create a measure then use it as a background color for Hop_Name
Color =
VAR __type = MAX ( Table[ProcessingType] )
RETURN
SWITCH ( TRUE(),
__type == "Failed", "Red",
__type == "Success", "Green",
"Yellow"
)
