KPI Status using KPI Matrix

Hi,

 

How do I add a green/yellow/red indication arrow on my KPI Matrix visual under the KPI Status-column in Power BI. I would like to see both the %-deviation and the arrow in the same column.

 

I have been watching various guides on how to do this the last 2-3 hours but find myself unable to understand these.

Hi @MortenR 

Measure 1 for the icon :

M_Magento_AverageOrderValue_YoY% =
DIVIDE ( [M_Magento_AverageOrderValue] - [M_Magento_AverageOrderValue_LY], [M_Magento_AverageOrderValue_LY] )

 

Measure 2 for the %+/- : 

M_Magento_AverageOrderValue YoY KPI =
IF (
NOT ISBLANK ( [M_Magento_AverageOrderValue_YoY%] ),
(
IF (
[M_Magento_AverageOrderValue_YoY%] < 0,
FORMAT ( [M_Magento_AverageOrderValue_YoY%], "Percent" ) & " "
& UNICHAR ( 129055 ),
"+" & FORMAT ( [M_Magento_AverageOrderValue_YoY%], "Percent" ) & " "
& UNICHAR ( 129053 )
)
),
BLANK ()
)
 
in the visual, add the Measure 2 by conditional formating by Rules based on field Measure 1:
