Visual Alert Gauge

Hello all,

 

I'd like to show some kind of visual alert on the Gauge when it exceeds the limit of the budget. 

Below, there is an example of it. The amount already used is 298K and the budget's limit is 160K.

I searched trough the web but couldn't find anything specific for this type of gauge.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi @EricHHA 

This is a kpi visual, please see how to create this visual:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/visuals/power-bi-visualization-kpi

 

By default, the Gauge visual doesn't show that "!" sign.

Or we may work with some workarounds:

1. conditional formatting

Measure

color = IF(SUM('Table'[value])>SUM('Table'[goal]),1,0)

2.

Or add a card visual

Measure = IF(SUM('Table'[value])>SUM('Table'[goal]),"!"," ")

Turn off "border" for card visual.

Thank you for the replies, but I still did not find any kind of "alert" within the view. As mentioned, I did put the budget on target value, but it simply added a slash on the gauge. What I really want to show is something like the image below, some kind of "!" red sign showing that the max value has been reached.

Again, thanks a lot

Hi @EricHHA 

As checked, their answers all seems to be helpful.

There are some Gauge visuals you could use in Power BI.

https://visualbi.com/blogs/microsoft/powerbi/custom-visuals/5-advanced-gauge-customization-power-bi/

Also, you could also add alerts in Power BI Service so Power BI can sends notifications to you and your members when the data exceeds the limit.

if you put a budget value on the goal and spending on the value you should show

you can play with the most settings to get a better view, is that what you're looking for?
