I am having issues creating conditional formating in Matrix table
I want to highlight the rows where Actual is more than Budget. I may be using the wrong visual. is there an other visual that can provide similar or better information.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Create the Color measure like this
Then go to the Format section -> Conditional formatting -> on Background color ->Advanced Control -> Select Field Value in Format By Section --> on the Based on field , select Color measure.
Attached is the pbix file.

@lotus22 , For this better to create two measures ,
actual = sumx(filter([Type]="Actual"),[USD])
Budget= sumx(filter([Type]="Budget"),[USD])
create a color measure
color = if([actual] >[budget],"green", "white")
Use that in conditional formatting using field values option
