So I have a table of KPI value, all values shown below are the average of the result. For my target calculation I have a switch case as such:
Targets =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
'Table'[MetricName] = "Days to Containment" && AVERAGE('Table'[Result]) > 10, "Red",
'Table'[MetricName] = "Days to Containment" && AVERAGE('Table'[Result]) > 10, "Red",
"Green"
)
Targets is a calculated column. In this program I am saying if the average result of a specific column name is greater than 10 then it is red if not it is green. Why does it show green for all values? I have tried it with and without the average around result.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
According to your code, I think [Target] is a calculated column. Here I suggest you to create a measure instead of calcualted column for conditional formatting. And there are not many conditions and return values in parallel here, only green and red. So I suggest you to try IF function.
My Sample:
Measure:
Targets =
IF (
MAX ( 'Table'[MetricName] ) = "Days to Containment"
&& AVERAGE ( 'Table'[Result] ) > 10,
"Red",
"Green"
)
Result is as below.
