Background color for Dimension in Pivot Table

Hi Guys,

I am having pivot table in which there are two dimensions namely Associate Name and Flag. In the source data there are three flags mainly 'Y','P','N'. For this table I want only two flags i.e 'Y' and 'P'. For this I have edited the Associate Dimension as follows:

if(Flag<>N,Associate_Name) and suppressed Null values in properties of table.

I have three expressions,

Max(Start_Date)

Max(End_Date)

Demand_Name

I want to give background color to Associate name depending upon End_Date. I have dragged the Flag dimension to horizontalize it so that I can have two columns of flag and inside the column of each flag there are three expressions.

Below is the expression I am using for the background color.

if([Active (Y/N)]='Y',

(if(MaxWOOverallDate<=$(v42Day) and MaxWOOverallDate>$(v35day),Yellow(),

if(MaxWOOverallDate<=$(v35day) and MaxWOOverallDate>$(v28Day),RGB(255,194,0),

if(MaxWOOverallDate<=$(v28Day) and (MaxWOOverallDate>=Today() or MaxWOOverallDate<Today()),LightRed(150))))),if([Active (Y/N)]='P',

(if(MaxWOOverallDate<=$(v42Day) and MaxWOOverallDate>$(v35day),Yellow(),

if(MaxWOOverallDate<=$(v35day) and MaxWOOverallDate>$(v28Day),RGB(255,194,0),

if(MaxWOOverallDate<=$(v28Day) and (MaxWOOverallDate>=Today() or MaxWOOverallDate<Today()),LightRed(150))))),LightBlue())

MaxWOOverallDate is the date which is maximum End_Date for each employee.


Above coloring expression in working fine for those Associates who are having only flag of Y or both flag Y and P. It is not working for those Associates who are only having P flag. But If I select flag P from list box,correct color code has been applied to Associate Name. But when both Y and P flag are selected expression does not work fine.

Hello ,

Don't mix color in your existing expression . Give simple expression without color,

For Color give serrate in background color .

Is tht ([Active (Y/N)] contains 'P' values??

Or it should be Flag?
