Conditional formatting on another column

Hi

 

I am trying to conditional format my finance result each month compared to the budget

The table 
ComapanyFinance mont 1budget mont 1Finance month 2budget month 2Finance month3budget month 3
1- 5-4,5-4.14,5-6-5,2

 

I have created a KPI Color DAX:

KPI_1_1_Color = IF(SUM('BUDGET_COMMITMENTS (2)'[KPI_1_1_Virkelig]) > SUM('BUDGET_COMMITMENTS (2)'[KPI_1_1_Budsjett]), "#69b00b"
,"#f44242"
)
 
I then use this on my visual and choose conditional formatting. Setting background color to my measure.
Then apply it.
 
The table should look like this
ComapanyFinance mont 1budget mont 1Finance month 2budget month 2Finance month3budget month 3
1- 5-4,5-4.14,5-6-5,2
 
How ever the finance month 2 get the color green as wel. It should be red.
 
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

Hi @h4_dkj ,

 

DAX measure is based on the current row context, it is recommended that you check that your model meets the requirements for using this measure.
