I’m having issues properly showing the growth and variance of negative items.
As an example, if actual EBITDA was -0.25 and budget was -1.0, I can get the difference to display correctly, but my only options for % variance are
Neither of those are correct. It should be +75%. I can use “Reverse Signs” but that doesnt apply to conditional formatting.
Has anyone figured out a better way to show this in a table?
Hello
I agree that the display options for negative items is less than ideal. -75% is an intuitively incorrect output for a situation where you generating higher EBITA. I don’t think any of the current selection of options fully meets your needs. Sign flipping, conditional formatting, and stacking calculated items all have a short coming that makes them less than ideal.
