I am trying to conditional format based on previous Qtr value. If the cell value is greater than previous qtr value then color the current cell as "RED". Data sample is below.
Name | Date | Year | Qtr | Hours |
John | 01-Jan-20 | 2020 | 1 | 20 |
John | 01-May-20 | 2020 | 2 | 30 |
John | 01-Aug-20 | 2020 | 3 | 10 |
John | 01-Dec-20 | 2020 | 4 | 40 |
Rick | 01-Jan-20 | 2020 | 1 | 10 |
Rick | 01-May-20 | 2020 | 2 | 20 |
Rick | 01-Aug-20 | 2020 | 3 | 10 |
Rick | 01-Dec-20 | 2020 | 4 | 10 |
John | 01-Jan-21 | 2021 | 1 | 40 |
John | 01-May-21 | 2021 | 2 | 10 |
John | 01-Aug-21 | 2021 | 3 | 20 |
John | 01-Dec-21 | 2021 | 4 | 10 |
Rick | 01-Jan-21 | 2021 | 1 | 60 |
Rick | 01-May-21 | 2021 | 2 | 30 |
Rick | 01-Aug-21 | 2021 | 3 | 10 |
Rick | 01-Dec-21 | 2021 | 4 | 10 |
I used a measure as below to condtional format and the output is correct but it is always coloring the first column as RED since there is no data before that period. I am using a Calendar Table (DateDim) too.
Is there any better way to do this or am I missing something?

Hi, @BI_Analyticz
Please try the below measure for the font color conditional formatting -> format by Field value.
The table names are a bit different than yours, but I hope you can easily fix it to apply to your model.
ConFormat Font Color =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
SUM ( Data[Hours] )
> CALCULATE ( SUM ( Data[Hours] ), PREVIOUSQUARTER ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) )
&& NOT ISBLANK (
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Data[Hours] ), PREVIOUSQUARTER ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) )
), "Red"
)
