Im not great at writing dax so any help would be greatly appreciated

Conditional formatting based on % of another column Calculated Column
Solved! Go to Solution.
Please try:
Column =
var current_ = 'Table'[Index]
var next = current_+1
var base_line = MAX('Table'[Index])
var current_value = 'Table'[filled]
var next_value = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[filled]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index]=next))
return SWITCH(TRUE(),
'Table'[Index]=base_line,"black",
current_value>next_value,"green",
current_value<next_value,"red",
current_value=next_value,"blue"
)
@cooksteve09 Just tweak the condition in the switch function based on your logic and it should work, you can add more conditions as per the business logic, not sure if you are unable to do that basic value condition stuff. You have the ides in the solution, just tweak it.

@cooksteve09 your last statement should be
SWITCH ( TRUE(),
Current_Value > Previous_Value, "Green",
Current_Value < Previous_Value, "Red",
"Blue"
)

Thank you @parry2k but its not quite right
Step 2 should be green because its greater then step 3 and step 3 should be blue because its equal to step 4, step 4 should be green because its greater then step 5 and step 5 should be black because thats the base line
does that make sense? any idea how i get it to work that way?
Please try:
Column =
var current_ = 'Table'[Index]
var next = current_+1
var base_line = MAX('Table'[Index])
var current_value = 'Table'[filled]
var next_value = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[filled]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index]=next))
return SWITCH(TRUE(),
'Table'[Index]=base_line,"black",
current_value>next_value,"green",
current_value<next_value,"red",
current_value=next_value,"blue"
)
Thank you, this is almost perfect except the baseline is only applying to the largest number of one ID, i need it to apply to each ID's largest Step number....tried several things but i just cant quite get the DAX right
