Conditional formatting Data Labels

Hi there, 

So I have this Chart with Revenue and Budget. I want the data values to be green if Revenue > than Budget.

 

I created this measure for comparison between Revenue and Budget. But I am always getting green values, even if the budget is higher (should be red). This graph works through hierarchies/Drill down.

@campelliann , Create a color measure and use that in conditional formatting using field value option

 

Assuming both are measures a new measure

 

if([Revenue] >= [Budget], "Green", "red")

 

How to do conditional formatting by measure and apply it on pie?

@amitchandak thank you. Almost... 

This is only working at the lowest level of hierarchy. I have BU, Company, Project, and is only working at the project level. Any idea why?
