Model Name | OD1 | OD2 | OD3 | OD4 | OD5 |
A | YES | YES | YES | NO | YES |
B | NO | NO | NO | NO | NO |
C | YES | YES | NO | YES | YES |
I have this table, and I would like to format the OD1 to OD5 column with color green and red. Yes is Green and No is Red.
OD1 ~ OD5 are new columns I created.
I know we can do if OD1 is Yes then 1 ad is No then 2 to do the formatting, but I have 5 columns then I would need to create 5 new columns.
Is ther any easier way to do this ?

Hi @SelflearningBi ,
Because each of your column names is different, Power BI Desktop can't make it easier to implement your needs.
The current system does not support this function. You can post your idea to Ideas .

Hi @SelflearningBi ,
According to your description, you want to set the background color according to yes and no,right? Here are my steps you can follow as a solution.
(1)This is my test data.
(2)We can create measures.
_OD1= var _od1 =SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[OD1])
return
IF( _od1 = "YES" , "green" ,"red")
_OD2= var _od2 =SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[OD2])
return
IF( _od2 = "YES" , "green" ,"red")
_OD3= var _od3 =SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[OD3])
return
IF( _od3 = "YES" , "green" ,"red")
_OD4= var _od4 =SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[OD4])
return
IF( _od4 = "YES" , "green" ,"red")
_OD5= var _od5 =SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[OD5])
return
IF( _od5 = "YES" , "green" ,"red")
(3) Set the background color for the OD1-OD5 columns in turn as shown in the following figure.
(4) Then the result is as follows.
For more information you can refer to this document Apply conditional table formatting in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn .
If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. Thank you.
