Background Color Pivot Expression Exclude Header

Hi,

I have a pivot and have the following for my Background Color

If([SLA]<[SLA Target], RGB(255,0,0),
If(IsNull([SLA]), RGB(214,231,247), RGB(0,255,0)))

It works but it is Highlighting the Header which I do want how do I exclude this from happening?

Thanks

Hello, Rocky.

I have the same problem with a pivot table.

Your suggestion is work for Total line only. but not work for header 😞

see in my small example.

P.S. in Straight table - No problem

If you have a requirement to have the subtotal at the bottom, I'm afraid you cannot solve this.

If that is not a requirement - just choose the option to have the subtotals at top in the Presentation tab.

For some reason I'm not able to attach the file. Sad

The Total Mode is greyed out so how would you be able to move this to the top?

In the Presentation TAB in the settings - set the Subtotals to be at TOP.

Sorry - dint get you.

Do you mean - you should not have Total Line or should the Total Line be at the bottom??

Hmm... you have the same exact problem I do.

Check this one. this is what I use.

This is by custom formatting the total cells with background color and text color being the same. Wink

Rocky, Thank you for your response.

but you don't understand my problem... please see in my qvw-example (I uploaded it some earlier). I have pivot table where my label of expression "Value" has green background. I don't want it. I don't need total line( check off "Show partial sums" for all my dimensions in presentation tab) and I don't want green header for my expression.
