Using Thresholds in Tables
Add thresholds to tables and choose how to display the threshold values.
You can add thresholds to measures in tables, including calculated and restricted measures.
After the threshold is applied to the table, when you move the cursor over a value, the tooltip will display the range and threshold name.
You can also add thresholds to calculated rows and columns, however those thresholds use number ranges only; they cannot be compared to measure values.
For information on how to create a threshold, see Creating Story-Defined Thresholds (Optimized Story Experience).
