Type

Select the comparison type from the following options:

  • Value: compares data to set values eg. Greater than 10.
  • Compare Column: compares data to set values stored in another column. E.g. Compare the received amount with amount invoiced to highlight those that are not equal.
  • Percentage of Column: compares the value to a percentage threshold of a comparison column. Use this to highlight revenue that is 10% less than ‘planned revenue’.
  • Percentage of Total: compares the value to a percentage of the total of the column. Use this to highlight values that represent less than 5% of revenue.
  • Percentage of Max: compares the value to a percentage of the maximum value. Use this to highlight values relative to the maximum value eg. values that are in the lowest 20% bracket of results

Target

If you select a column comparison type you will have to choose the column that you want to compare your data to. Choose the appropriate column.
