How to reference differences between columns of visualization
- 4 years ago
Hi Anonymous ,
According to your description, I create a sample, you can create a measure like this:
Measure = VAR _Pre = MAXX ( FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Company_Name] = MAX ( 'Table'[Company_Name] ) && YEAR ( 'Table'[Date] ) = YEAR ( MAX ( 'Table'[Date] ) ) && MONTH ( 'Table'[Date] ) = MONTH ( MAX ( 'Table'[Date] ) ) - 1 ), 'Table'[Invoice] ) RETURN IF ( _Pre <> BLANK () && DIVIDE ( MAX ( 'Table'[Invoice] ) - _Pre, MAX ( 'Table'[Invoice] ) ) > 0.03, "RED" )In the visual formatting pane>Cell elements, turn on the Font color, apply the measure to the Invoice color.
Get the result.
I attach my sample below for reference.

Power BI has no concept of "previous" or "next" column or row. You need to explain to the engine how your data is sorted and what the intervals are.
Please provide sanitized sample data that fully covers your issue. If you paste the data into a table in your post or use one of the file services it will be easier to assist you. Avoid posting screenshots of your source data if possible.
Please show the expected outcome based on the sample data you provided. Screenshots of the expected outcome are ok.
