Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Zakaria_1980 ,
Please create a measure as below and set the conditional formatting as below screenshot:
Cond Formatting =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
[-Planning Accuracy_BVP (BP vs AC)] < 0.5, "Red",
[-Planning Accuracy_BVP (BP vs AC)] < 0.9, "Orange",
"Green"
)
If the above one is not working for your scenario, please share some sample data or your simplified pbix file(exclude sensitive data) in order to provide you a suitable solution. Thank you.
Best Regards
Try changing the order of the IFs in the conditional cormatting:
First: less the 50%
Second: less than 90%
Third: less than 100%
Or
Create a measure to use for the field value in the conditional formatting:
Cond Formatting =
SWITCH([Planning accuracy measure],
< 0.5, "Red",
< 0.9, "Orange",
"Green")

even if i changed the order it still the same.
when i created the measure, it gives to me unexpected expression for the "<"
Apologies. It should be:
Cond Formatting =
SWITCH ( TRUE() ,
[Planning accuracy measure]< 0.5, "Red",
[Planning accuracy measure]< 0.9, "Orange",
"Green")
