I need to show in the first column a green button for sales over $10,000, a red button less than $10,000 and for the other two column green for count over 5 and red for count less than five.

Hi @sajarac,

Based on my research, you could use the UNICHAR function to show different shape, you could refer below link to set different symbols:

Thank you very much for your prompt reply.

 

However it seems like is designed for expert user, and I am currently in baby steps.

 

I know how to apply icons sets in excel and I was hopping to see the same fuctionality here in PBI. So far I have my table with conditional format "Font Chage" i.e if this number is below to 10,000 red, green.

 

But I would like to add a nice shape

Thank you

Hi,

 

I created a Measure i.e KPI

 

KPI = UNICHAR(11044)

 

Then in my table I have added a column "KPI" KPI in my case was rename to "Min 10K Sale"

 

Now in that column for the conditional format I changed the format by "Rules" based on my taste
