Hi @Anonymous ,

Are you sure if your Sum CM column is having data as a %.

In case if you have applied % as a data format on top of numbers your conditional formatting might not work as it will get input as Numbers.

i.e. Your 34% might be 0.34 as per the originial data without data format of % applied.

In such case, instead of applying conditional formatting on %, try doing it on Numbers, with 0 as min value and 1 as Max Value. i.e. 100% is 1, 40% is 0.4, 34% is 0.34 etc.

 

Regards,

Hi @Anonymous ,

 it looks like that is a totals line and the formatting is being applied to values only, not values and totals.
