Conditional Formatting

Hello,

 

I have a report where I am trying to compare the number of forecasted days for a project vs all the hours entered for each project.

 

I've used a measure and I am trying to conditionally format the meausre so it shows green if the hours are less than the forecasted days and red if it is more.

 

Can someone advise how to do this as I can't get it to work.

  1. Create a measure for calculating the difference
  2. Navigate to visual properties ( Cell element)
  3. Select the column which you want to format
  4. Turn on Background color
  5. Then fill the below window. The Red marked field should be your newly created measure.
