pl-300 Practice Question 1934
Exam: pl-300
Domain: Visualize and analyze the data
Topic: Create reports and dashboards
Difficulty: medium
You are designing a dashboard in Power BI and want to include a KPI card that displays the current sales target and the actual sales figures. The KPI card should visually indicate whether the sales target has been met by using a traffic light system (green for meeting the target, yellow for near the target, and red for not meeting the target). How can you configure the KPI card to achieve this?
Answer Options
A
Set a fixed value
B
Set thresholds and colors
C
Use a custom visual
D
Use a measure
Correct Answer
B: Set thresholds and colors
Explanation
The correct answer is B - 'Set thresholds and colors'. In Power BI, you can set thresholds and assign specific colors to different ranges of values in a KPI card to visually represent performance levels. Option A (Set a fixed value) would not allow for a dynamic representation of performance. Option C (Use a custom visual) could be an alternative but is more complex and not as straightforward as setting thresholds. Option D (Use a measure) would not directly control the visual appearance of the KPI card.
