Creating a conditional field based on two different dates from two different tables.

[eilidh3]

Hi all,

Im looking to create a conditional field based on two different dates from two different tables.  

If Table 1 - Stage 1 date has past then the field turns red (this is in place) however i would like to create a new column that looks at Table 1 - Stage 1 date and displays it unless Table 2 - Stage 1 date contains data.  I will set a condition to show the new field as green.  

Can anyone help with how this code would look like?  

Any help much appreciated as always 🙂  

Thanks

@eilidh3 , you can create color measure like this

Color sales = if(AVERAGE(Sales[Sales Amount])<170,"green","red")
Color Year = if(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Year],2014) <=2016,"lightgreen",if(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Year],2014)>2018,"red","yellow"))

Color  = if(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Year],2014) <=2016 && AVERAGE(Sales[Sales Amount])<170 
,"lightgreen",if(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Year],2014)>2018,"red","yellow"))
Color sales = if([Sales Today] -[sales yesterday]>0,"green","red")

, based on your conditions and use it after choosing field option in color grouping
