Conditionally Format Max Row Values and compare

Hey All. I have two tables, like below
1. 

bblackwell3_0-1721686573066.png


2.

I am trying to conditionally color the values, if( the Items = Admin and Budgeted in Table 1) matches the (Item = Admin and baseline budget value in Table 2). Then I want to be able to filter for the Leader. I was able to create the logic, using max, however this is looking at column level, where I need a row level. When filtered, I lose the color conditions in my table visual

Below is my intended result

Hi @bblackwell3 

Adjust the measure "match or not":

Match or not = IF(LOOKUPVALUE('Table2'[Budgeted],'Table2'[Budgeted],SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Budgeted])),"match","not match")



color = 
VAR _max = CALCULATE(MAX('Table1'[Budgeted]),FILTER(ALL('Table1'),[Match or not] = "match"))

RETURN
SWITCH(TRUE(),SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Budgeted])=_max,"green")

Hi @bblackwell3 

 

First, create a measure to determine if the items and budgeted in the two tables match:

Match or not = IF(LOOKUPVALUE('Table2'[Budgeted],'Table2'[Items],SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Items]),'Table2'[Budgeted],SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Budgeted])),"match","not match")

 

Then create a measure to apply conditional formatting to the filtered matching values

color = 
VAR _max = CALCULATE(MAX('Table1'[Budgeted]),FILTER(ALL('Table1'),[Match or not] = "match"))

RETURN
SWITCH(TRUE(),SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Budgeted])=_max,"green")

This could be a possible solution. However, I made a mistake on my end. I actually do not have an Items column in Table 2. How would this alter the logic?
