Is it possible to highlight the subtotals of a matrix based on conditions (Dynamic Measure).
This Requirement is very much do-able in Excel. But, Can we do the same with Power BI.
The Subtotal row (Total on the screenshot) has been highlighted as red if the allocation is more than the capacity and highlighted as green if the allocation is lesser than the capacity and when it is equal it is highlighted in Yellow.
Adding the thread postponed on the Power BI Community here :- https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/17401381-conditional-formatting-for-total-and-subtotals-in
Kindly let me know, if this is do-able now by making changes in the Model and provide a small working example.

I currently have a report that kind of looks like this in Excel. Is it possible to create the same structure with the color formatting in Power BI? Especially with the Percentage Sale and Sales Amount below each other in the row?
I tried using Matrix visual but I kind of run into a problem since the columns would have different format types - whole number and percentage. Also tried with showing columns in rows, while using Percentage Sale and Sales Amount as two columns. But then I would have problems with the color formatting. Any ideas how to achieve it in Power BI?
Its actually simple ..... just follow these steps
1.) You can use matrix or table both... but I preferred tables
2.) Go to format Visual (In visualistation you can see 3 option... its the middle one)
3.) After that click on values.
4.) Now you can se background color , alterante background color etc
5.) Just choose it acc to preferences
If you want a bar label in a selected column then,
6.)In build format, right click on your column (which you want to customize)
7.)Select conditional formatting
8.)Now you can change color
9.)apply this. After that you can see your data of selected columns are showing grid bars
I have ran into an issue that seems like it should be easy to solve but I am hitting a wall.
Here is an example of the matrix visual I am trying to create. The columns in green are good. The columns in red text are what I am struggling with. The yellow highlights represent the totals that are blank on my visual in power bi, as well as one calculating incorrectly due to the measure.
I also pasted the Food Goals table that I am working with. The issues seem to stem from the fact that I do not have an overall food goal % for the company, only by department. In the excel file, you can see what the ideal totals row would look like in the matrix, along with the formulas used in the spreadsheet to calculate.

I have a KPI which I need to conditional format based on a dynamic condition.
Example:
KPI : A
if A > Average of A in that cluster(A column present in the table) then the cell should be RED
if A lies between some values then the cell should be AMBER
if A lies below some value then the cell should be GREEN
I was doing conditional formatting by RULES prior to this but I cant seem to find an option there which can dynamically calculate the Average cluster total or Average country total and format the cells with colours.
Even if I make this DAX expression how do I put it in the table?
Also, is it even possible by DAX?
How can I do custom number formatting in a Power Bi visual?
I don't want to show all value as million. I want to put thousand for 1-day value, and million for 1-week value and year for 1-year value.
Power BI charts follow the principles of good data visualisation. That includes a scale that is relevant to the data with labels that relate to the scale.
In the visualisation, the differences for the values less than 1M are not discernible. The label with the 0M supports that approach, although it doesn't look great. But that happens when you have a chart with very large AND very small values. Power BI only supports one display unit and you selected Millions.
You may want to consider using a different visual for the data. Not all visuals to be shown as charts. If you want to show the exact numbers, then a simple table might be a better approach. In a sorted list of numbers, the digits in a number act very much like a horizontal bar.
Or split the chart in two and show one chart for values above 1M and another for values below 1M.
Or use Thousands as display units instead of Millions.
Hi I'm trying to create a Bar Chart like this (This chart is an illustration, not created from data yet):
If the data is being fetched from a single table, how can I have dual color scheme for bar is past and future. Also how can I place a moving marker that automatically updates the TODAY placard based on whenever the report is viewed and accordingly bars should follow the past and future color schemes.
Schema is roughly as follows:
Table1: Issue ID, Release name, issue priority
Table2: Release name, Release date
In Power BI as well as in Excel, the secret is in the data layout. You can't just have all your past and future data in two columns and magically expect that some of them will turn out red and orange instead of dark and light gray.
You will need to prep your data source to include stacked series for the light gray, dark gray, red and orange series. Stack all series on top of each other and make sure that where the red and orange series have values, there are only zero values for the gray series.
I suggest you use four columns for four stacked series and divide the values accordingly.
In Power BI, you can apply the same principle as in this Excel screenshot.
Let me know if you need help translating that to Power BI.
Edit: The Power BI data does not have to be static. You can build columns with Dax functions that arrange the data in the pattern required. Add four columns to your data model with the formulas
chtPastProdA = if(tblProducts[Date]<TODAY(),tblProducts[Product A],0)
chtPastProdB = if(tblProducts[Date]<today(),tblProducts[Product B],0)
chtFutureProdA = if(tblProducts[Date]>=today(),tblProducts[Product A],0)
chtFutureProdB = if(tblProducts[Date]>=today(),tblProducts[Product B],0)
Then build a stacked column chart and stack all four of these series. Format the colors.
For the "Today" marker you would need a custom label, which Power BI currently does not support. But since the demarcation between gray and red/yellow is today, it's quite obvious where the current date is, anyway.
