Hi @preetiverma525 ,

 

")" is missing at the end of the expression.

 

BackgroundColor =
IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( '5DaysSLA'[Working Days] ) < 3,
    "#008000",
    IF (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( '5DaysSLA'[Working Days] ) > 3
            && SELECTEDVALUE ( '5DaysSLA'[Working Days] ) < 5,
        "#FFBF00",
        "#FF0000"
    )
)

 

 

 

In addition, you can also try this measure, which works the same as yours:

 

BackgroundColor =
SWITCH (
    TRUE (),
    SELECTEDVALUE ( '5DaysSLA'[Working Days] ) < 3, "#008000",
    SELECTEDVALUE ( '5DaysSLA'[Working Days] ) > 3
        && SELECTEDVALUE ( '5DaysSLA'[Working Days] ) < 5, "#FFBF00",
    "#FF0000"
)

 

 

 

Best Regards,
