Comparing column values with measure

Hi Power BI Professionals:

 

I'm trying to compare my measure with my columns to get another calculated column:

FrPY is a measure and Goal is a column. What I need is for Status (calculated column) to compare FrPY and Goal where If(frPY<goal) then return a 1.

 

not all rows have a goal so I have filtered those away in the report level filter (if it affects the calculation)

 

The reason I want to do this is because conditional formatting cannot be set based off other columns. (I want to do a traffic light color if frpy<goal =red, frpy=goal = green

@CTW,

 

You may add a measure as follows.

Measure =
IF ( [FrPY] < MAX ( Table1[Goal] ), 1, 0 )

@v-chuncz-msftThis worked for me. Can you tell me how adding MAX works though?

Thanks that worked!
