RAG Status help
Let's say for a budget cell a1 has the actual figure, cell b1 has the budget figure, and cell c1 has the variance figure.
In d1 i need a RAG status whereby if the actual figure is over 10% of the budget it will be a red icon, 5-10% yellow, and less than 5% is green.
And lastly if the actual figure is less than the budget it is automatically green. Can i do conditional formatting for this? Thanks for any help
In the screenshot, the formula in D2 is =C2, so that it contains the same percentage.
A conditional formatting rule hides the value and displays a red/amber/green stoplight icon.
- Thanks for your reply, this is a good method.
What if the variance number in C had to be a number variance and not a percentage?If C2 contains the formula =A2-B2, change the formula in D2 to =C2/B2.
The rest remains the same.
