Hi @JosephSerpis 

 

Thanks for the link. The story of the blob was so fascinating! Do you still have any other sample to share like those with pivots and conditional formatting?

 

Looking forward for your response.

 

Thanks,

Hi @PanPP ; @JosephSerpis 

 

Yes, I was able to read the blog. I have here an attachment and would like to seek your ideas on how to build the workflow using the template. Considering applying the conditional format of having an indicator under Total Grade field.

 

Thanks and looking forward for your assistance.

Hi @KamenRider 

 

Are you referring to the green, and red indicators? In Alteryx, you won't be able to do that but when you output to the template, you could set that up.

 

In the total grade field, you can use a formula with the expression [ColumnName1]/[ColumnName2] to calculate that percentage. 

 

Hope this helps. If it does please like the post, if you have any other questions please reach out.

Hi @PanPP 

 

While this is the scenario as attached in my previous message, can you show me the workflow how this blob is being used? I need more idea so I can learn from it. A sample workflow using my sample template would be very helpful. 

 

Thanks,

 

Looking forward for your positive response.
