Hi @Anonymous,

 

Suppose the source table is like below.

Use a Matrix to display data, and apply conditional formattingto "Values" rather than "Rows" or "Columns".

@v-yulgu-msft thank you for your time . 

But let's supose the source table is not like that , because i don't have just one amount , but three and the values are not numbers but places/names . 

How do I formate it by color knowing that the copmarable value is just text ? 

And how can i make the usernames show on the table , even if there is no data about them ?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Please provide some dummy data.

@v-yulgu-msft
Thank you very much for your help . I took your suggestion and I have decited to use just  simple Matrix . The point where i am a little stuck is : 

If there is no data for a user , then the Name will not display in the matrix . Is there any way to change that ?
