  • 1.  Workspace : how to do a top 10 and bottom 10 variance by account

    Posted Thu September 19, 2019 01:15 PM
    ​Hi all

    I am trying to create reports in workspace am fairly new to the IBM PA and taking a course on data and creating report.

    However the training module does not give any idea on how to do conditional formatting with regards to getting  top 10 and bottom 10 variance by account and highlight the same.



    Any input will be super helpful.

    TIA

    Hi Dhwani,

    You can use PA for Excel, leverage conditional formatting Top/Bottom Rules, set color coding, then publish to PA Workspace.

    If you need to do this in PA Workspace natively, I haven't found the same capability. But, you can create a calculation, use rank, then set conditional formatting to something like 'yourcolumn >= value 10' to color code the top 10. Of course, you can hide the calculated column.
    See the screen for a sample highlighting top 5 with green and bottom 5 with red.

    Hi,

    In PA Workspace, you can highlight the column you want to use in ranking. Right-click on the column name and select Top or Bottom Filter.

    Thanks,
