I'm hoping someone can help me with a problem I'm having with the Power KPI visual. My table is column based. I can map the comparison value, KPI indicator index and value in the task pane (see below). However, once I click on "back to report" the KPI status and comparison value fields are blank (I did click on "apply" before going back to report).
Previously, I didn't have this problem. It only started happening once I added the third metric "Total issues YTD".
Does any have any suggestions?
Hi @Toyota
When i enter 0 in the "comparision value" , it shows blank.
Is this the same with your scenario?
Best Regards
Maggie
Maggie,
Yes, that is the same scenario as me. However, I've had 0 in the comparison value fields for 1 week and the KPI status and column mapping was working fine until yesterday.
FYI, I have the latest versions of Power BI desktop and Power KPI.
Hi @Toyota
I'm consulting with Product team to confirm whether it is by design or a bug.
I will update if i get any information.
As a temperary solution to let you show the the value with 0, here is workaround.
create a measure
Measure 2 = IF(MAX([comparison value])=0,"0",MAX([comparison value]))
this measure is of Type Text, so don't use this measure to calculate other measures or columns (like [kpi status])
Best Regards
Maggie
Thanks Maggie, but I think I wasn't clear enough.
The original image I posted is what I see when I'm mapping the columns. After I hit "apply" and "back to report". All of the KPI indicators and comparison values are blank whether the comparison value = 0 or something >0.
