Conditional Format In Pivot Table Columns

Hi All
I am wondering if it is possible to accomplish conditional formatting in each column of a pivot table.
My table looks like
Jan/12 Feb/12 Mar/12
Bill 1.00 4.00 7.00
Bob 4.00 1.00 3.00
Charlie 5.00 1.00 2.00
What I am trying to do is highlight the max(value) in each column regardless of the other columns
So for Jan I want to format 5.00 / Feb 4.00 / Mar 7.00
I have tried playing around with Rank but cannot seem to get it working properly.
Does anybody know how this is possible?
Thanks in advance

Hi clueless,
Just an idea...have you already tried to create an extra object max like max(measure by period, person)...so you will obtain the max value for each combination period,person.
Afterwards you can use this object for your conditional report : when measure = max(measure) then 'red'.
give it a try and keep us informed.

Conditional Format in Pivot Table

Thanks in advance...
I created report like below in pivot table
_____Year 2009
______Period 3
Name Mark
Aju__ 100
Alex_ 75
Mick_ 80
Rabi_ 90
sam_ 80
from this report I need to highlight the entire row of 'Alex' and 'Sam' ...
but its work in 'Compound Layout'
How could I do this ?
Regards,
Selva

Hi Selva,
Conditional formatting is bit difficult for your requirement in Pivot table,because there some limitations in conditional formatting of pivot table.
You can select the entire Pivot table and apply the conditional formatting but..conditions will only format specific Cells .. and can not format entire row.. (for exmp. it will highlight only cell of alex. and not entire row of alex)
Hope this will help..
Thanks.

Possible to do conditional formatting in pivot table?

Hello,
I would like to do color row or column values based on certain conditions in my pivot table. I noticed the field tags in the pivot are not your standard <?value1?> but rather they are structured like <?./H?> or <?./M1?>
Is it possible to do this? As an example, if a row = '001' i want the entire row green, or if a single measure value in a cell = '0' i would like to color it red.

Check the blog http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2010/03/new_skool_crosstabbing.html for explanation on those fields and try to format them accordingly.

Cross Conditional format in Pivot Table

Hi Guys
I have an important client requirement where by I need to present the data in teh following format
CAMBODIA LAOS SRI LANKA
KPI_NAME PROPOSED_TARGET_VALUE MIN_TARGET_VALUE Aug-09 Sep-09 Oct-09 Aug-09 Sep-09 Oct-09 Aug-09 Sep-09 Oct-09
SERVICES PROVISIONING CALL RATE (%) <5% <5% 21.00% 68.00% 10.80% 1.300% 0.100% 1200.% 2.500% 5.000% 66.50%
The table is like that :
     Measure     Indicator
13     38     White
17     1016     Red Green
15     3456     White
19     8644     Grey
12     41605.886     White
10     52647.007     White
This is possible only through pivot table whereby country and period dimesions have been put in pivot.
Also there is a requirement to paint the background colour in Red Amber Green ... and for that I ahve to create a new column where after comparing i can put the status as Red ..Amber ..Green and based on the cross column conditional formating I can paint the fact value like 21.00% (shown above) .
But when I am importing that table in pivot view all the backgrounf colour vanishes. since cross column conditional formating is not supported in pivot.
Is there any way out to achieve this requirement .
Thanks

Above Average Conditional Formatting in Pivot Table off Row Total

I have a pivot table where the months are column labels and the actual issues are Row labels. This is inverted from a normal pivot table where the months are usually the row labels.
Basically I want the table to look at the value in the Values cells to look at the row Average instead of the column Average. Is there a way to do this?
I've highlighted all my Value cells (showing the sum of the issue for a specific month) and then applied the Above Average conditional formatting selecting 'All cells showing "Average of #of Tickets" values for "Issue" and "Month".
This works where the cells' value is greater than the columns average, but I want it to look at the row average instead.
Is this possible? I thought it be simple, but I can't figure it out. The table will grow every month width wise and possibly adding new issues each month.

Hi Vetsrini, thanks for the reply. I'm using the crosstab feature of BI Publisher template builder in MS Word to create the pivot table. I have a field called ACTIVITY as the row, and I want to bold the font and set the color as red if the ACTIVITY equals to certain text (such as if ACTIVITY = 'A' then bold & red). Can you please tell me how that can be achieved? I tried using the conditional formatting feature of the template builder, but it only works if I use it in a table, and not in pivot table.
Thanks a lot.

Conditional formating in Pivot Table

Hi All,
I have 3 columns Year, Month & Sales in my pivot table. I have applied conditional formatting to sales column as
if sales < 20 million Red
Sales > 30 million green
Sales between 20, 30 yellow
Now,
I have set the drilldown such that, when i drill down the year it drills down to prod categories --> products --> etc
when i have just year, month & sales everything looks good, but when i drill down to next level ie: product category, the conditional formatting is getting carried to the next level which i dont want to.
Is there any way to make sure that the conditional formatting does not carry forward or give a new set of conditions to the next level.
Thanks in Advance,
VNK

With Navigation, you can customize the report that the parent report goes to when a user clicks on a value (or column). Set your child report with all the columns you want and with whatever conditional formatting you want.
On the value you want the user to click on to go to this child report, click on the format properties (finger icon) and click on the Column tab. Set the Value Interaction to Navigation and point to the child report.
In the child report, on the same column (you need to have the same column in the child report), add an "Is Prompted" filter.
This will give you full control of the conditional formatting you desired and the "drill down" effect.

Is it possible to do conditional formatting in pivot table

I have created a duplicate layer of no of transactions which displays % of transactions.I need to highlight % above 50 in diff color.Is it possible in pivot table?

Hi,
Try this
In the criteria create one more column with formula as
100.0 * "Sales Facts"."Amount Sold" / REPORT_SUM("SH"."Sales Facts"."Amount Sold" BY ) ....this gives you the same result as percentage in Pivot table.
Replace Amount Sold by your measure column % of transactions.
Now set the conditional formatting in Criteria tab using this column. i.e if *100.0 * "Sales Facts"."Amount Sold" / REPORT_SUM("SH"."Sales Facts"."Amount Sold" BY ) > 50* then RED or whatever you want.
Hope this works.
Thanks

Conditional formatting in Pivot table

Hi,
I have a pivot table based on a Data Model.
For simplicity It has are four fields
1 for row, 1 for column, 1 for display data, 1 logical field.
I want to format data cell based on the logical field, but I don't want to display the logical field on Pivot table.
Could anyone give me a hint please
Thanks
Ponraj

Okay, I was hoping the easiest part of what I did would work for you. So now we "roll up our sleeves." What is the error message you get?
Something to remember: This only works on CHAR columns. If you have a calculated measure, you have to do it in the BMM layer, then bring the "string version" of the columns in the Presentation Layer.

Thanks alot in advance.

Pathan,
This can be achieved by dragging the "Measure Labels" object to the rows. Put POD and Measuers object in to the rows and months in columns.
that will work.
thanks

Can I make a condtional format on pivot table (Or hide columns in a Table)

I found a "hide" option at table's column. it works:)

Increasing the width of Pivot table Columns

Hi Gurus,
Small pivot table --> ( ie having less no of columns which generally can be seen in a single page without scrolling to the right)
If i have a small pivot table , then in the column properties through additional formatting options i can increase the width of an individual column.
However if the pivot table is Big,I am not able to increase the width of the individual column .
I tried setting width in the additional formatting options in the Content Properties( just above Rows and below Section there is a small grey box containing finger).
Now the Content Properties indeed increases the width of the column, but it also increase the width of the whole Pivot Table.
See...If i have a fixed number of columns in a PIVOT Table that do not change with prompt, then this solution work fine...
but the problem comes when the no of columns in pivot Table reduces based on the prompt selected.
In this case the less no of columns tries to occupy the whole width set in the content properties.
In short, with Content Properties the width of the PIVOT Table becomes fixed, irrespective of the no of columns coming.
Also after setting content properties, I am not able to print the report to PDF.
So the Question is... Can we increase the width of a Big Pivot Table whose no of columns keeps on changing based on the prompt....
Big pivot table -->
(ie table having no of columns which exceeds a single window frame and have to scroll to right to see the rest of the columns)
I hope i have not made things messy...
Thanks
Ashish

Ashish,
Yes, you can set a fixed size for these. I'm sure you are fixing these because of PDF issue which might be irregular in sizes. Just play arnd with Custom CSS options.

Data format in pivot table calculated item

Hi All,
I've got a pivot table with a dimension on rows and a dimension on columns and a measure. I have a "new calculated item" based on the dimension on the columns which does the following: ( ($2-$1) / ($1) ) *100
I want this calculated item shown as a percentage like 1,2% but the measure must stay a whole number like 1234 (no decimal places or percentage symbols) any suggestions on how to achieve this?
Thanks in advance!
Gilles

Hi Kishore,
It is not helpful, I mean, it doesn't solve my problem. But nice post!
What I have is the following:
--------C1------C2-----C3
R1|--123--|--345--|--678--|
R2|--124--|--346--|--679--|
R3|--125--|--347--|--670--|
What I want is the following:
--------C1------C2-----C3---------calculated item
R1|--123--|--345--|--678--|--(($2-$1) / ($1) ) *100)
R2|--124--|--346--|--679--|
R3|--125--|--347--|--670--|
the column results must remain in the same format, but the calculated item must be in the format %9.99 (to see the percentage change)
any other suggestions?

Condition colors in pivot table

I have an analysis in which I have defined 3 conditions for a column (just changing the color depending on its value). I´ve included a pivot table view and I did a duplicate layer for that column... Displayed this one as a percentage. Everything is working fine... just that the percentage column also has the same color as the value column... I don´t think that is right since the condition is for the value but it seems that using the duplicate layer also 'duplicates' the color...
Pls. is there a way to avoid this behaviour for the percentage column ?
Txs.

BExpert, Brazil

Hello Srini,
Txs. for the suggestion... but I am thinking... In the way you suggested how could I use the Total... In my pivot table, 1st. column is the Product hierarchy... so all the totals and subtotals are done by the pivot table faciliity... Using a table / column.. I understand I will loose the 'easy way to do it via duplicate layer in pivot'.
Pls. am I missing something ?
txs.
Antonio
