    KPI Red/Yellow/Green Indicators were available in Power Pivot. With the new Power BI Desktop this feature is not available anymore. If you import from PP to the Desktop it converts the RYG Indicator Dots to a number. Will the Red/Yellow/Green Indicators be added back to PowerBI Desktop? If so When?

    It's very exciting to be able to close this idea! With the July 2019 release of Power BI Desktop you can now create icon sets that show status indicators, in fact a whole range of icons, in your table and matrix visuals. You can read more in Amanda's blog post here: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-july-2019-feature-summary/#iconSets For those of you who want to have the KPI definition stored in the model itself, please vote on this idea for us to track interest there: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200/suggestions/38181139 Thanks for engaging with the ideas forum and helping us build the product you need!

    Use the UNICHAR DAX to add KPI indicators:

    Conditional formatting for text would be nice.

    Upvote. need KPI icon sets (like those in Excel) in Power BI conditional formatting options. Doing the whole Power Pivot in to Power BI is too complicated.

    Indicators in Table or Matrix visualizations are a much needed feature in our business friendly Power BI reports. Please add this feature as soon as possible!

    Add my vote for conditional formatting of text, date and Boolean fields and columns without necessarily having to create calculated columns. This is essential.

    Icon sets would be a nice to have as well.

    Conditional formatting of date / time is a must. Easily identifying if an important milestone has passed is critical to visual reports / dashboards
