Conditional formatting, no value to select

Hey everybody,

 

I have an issue with conditional formatting. Before I created the table in the code, it worked fine. Now, I cannot select a value for the rules, and the selecting box it is highlighted in red. I have never had this issue before and think it might be related to the calculated table. However, it doesn't make any sense. Can anyone help me with this? I deleted the table, but the problem persists, so there must be another issue.

 

Here is the DAX code for the table:

 

 

 

 

InterpolatedData = 
VAR ProjectTable = FILTER(
    'GetHglDchExportData',
    NOT(ISBLANK([ConstructionStart])) &&
    NOT(ISBLANK([ConstructionEnd])) &&
    NOT([State] IN {"ungesichert", "ab 2 Jahre Garantie", "ab 5 Jahre Garantie", "Absagen"})
)
RETURN
    GENERATE(
        ProjectTable,
        VAR StartDate = [ConstructionStart]
        VAR EndDate = [ConstructionEnd]
        VAR VolumePerDay = [DailyOrderVolume]
        VAR ProjectId = [ProjectId]
        VAR Descriptio = [Description]
        RETURN
            SELECTCOLUMNS(
                CALENDAR(StartDate, EndDate),
                "Datum_daily", [Date],
                "Volume_daily", VolumePerDay
            )
    )

Hi @MrNeverland 

Conditional Formatting is available when the column specified with any aggregate function or it's a measure. In your scenario, you can set one aggregate function for the Amount column, eg: Sum. Then you can see the Conditional Formatting is available.

For more specific assistance :

please share a pbix or some dummy data that keep the raw data structure with expected results? It should help us clarify your scenario and test to coding formula.

@Ritaf1983 thanks for your reply - true, here are the two files WeTransfer (I didn't find any way to insert the files in the post.)

- PowerBI dummy

- Exceldata dummy

 

A further problem is, I cannot choose a visual and then drag & drop the data from GetHglDchExportData and the other calculated table. I always have to select firstly the value and then change the visual. Super annoying. And there are some more of these problems. I have the feeling that the tables and data is corrupted. I even tried copying the powerbi and start over. same problem here. It might be the calculated columns in GetHglDchExportData? But I never had this issue before.

 

Hope the data helps.
