Conditional Formatting using DAX measure

Hello there,

 

I'm trying to do a conditional formatting using a dax measure. I need to add a conditional format to the column vFCT based on a month progress:

 

Progress = (DAY(TODAY())-1)/DAY(EOMONTH(TODAY();1))
 
The problem is in conditional format based on field value:

 

i cannot select the measure.
 
Any suggestion?
 
Thanks in advance.
 

 

  • Hi Dvilches_ ,

    This is conditional formatting of background color, so I think the measure need to return the color code. I think you need to change measure like below to see whether it work or not.

     

    Measure = var  aa=(DAY(TODAY())-1)/DAY(EOMONTH(TODAY(),1))  return SWITCH(TRUE(),aa<0, "#fcba03", aa<0.05,"#aaf0ad", aa<1, "#b8ecf5",aa>=1,"#c7acfc")
