Highlighting columns in a table (Conditional formatting)

[rkumar]

Hi All,

Need help with - 

If data values of two columns of a table do not match then highlight those columns or colour those columns,

Eg 

Column A	Column B
22		22
22		43
19		19

Thankyou.

Hi @rkumar,

Currently, Power BI doesn’t support conditional format between multiple columns and only support format number. Please refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-conditional-table-formatting. Here is a similar idea shared on Power BI Ideas forum. You can vote it up and add your comments there to improve Power BI on this feature. 

As a workaround you can firstly create a calculate column using the formula below:

IS_Column1_Match_Column2 = IF([Column1] = [Column2], 1, 0)

Then you can use conditional formatting to set the color of the calculate column.
