Hi Guys,
I'm creating a fairly basic table listing sales totals per salesperson, over time - as below. There are 3 fields: Date, Sales and Salesperson, that make up this table.
What I would like to do is colour code increases/decreases/no changes on the most recent date's total based off the previous date's total.
01-Jan | 02-Jan | |
Tom | £ 800.00 | £ 700.00 |
Jane | £ 400.00 | £ 400.00 |
Mary | £ - | £ 150.00 |
John | £ 200.00 | £ 150.00 |
Luke | £ 650.00 | £ 800.00 |
So for example, the above would be [coloured] as below:
01-Jan | 02-Jan | |
Tom | £ 800.00 | £700.00 [RED] |
Jane | £ 400.00 | £400.00 [YELLOW] |
Mary | £ - | £150.00 [GREEN} |
John | £ 200.00 | £150.00 [RED] |
Luke | £ 650.00 | £800.00 [GREEN] |
I can only seem to apply conditional formatting to all values (i.e. both columns) on a general highest/lowest scale.
Is it possible to do what I'm looking for?
Cheers.

Hi @PBI_Curve,
I'd like to suggest you write a measure to calculate the diff between date and return color string based on result, then you can simply use above measure as conditional format field of value column.
Measure = VAR currPerson = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Person] ) VAR currDate = MAX ( 'Table'[Date] ) VAR prevDate = CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[Date] ), FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), [Date] < currDate ) ) VAR diff = LOOKUPVALUE ( 'Table'[Amount], 'Table'[Person], currPerson, 'Table'[Date], currDate ) - LOOKUPVALUE ( 'Table'[Amount], 'Table'[Person], currPerson, 'Table'[Date], prevDate ) RETURN IF ( diff > 0, "Green", IF ( diff = 0, "Orange", "Red" ) )
Regards.
