I'm trying to insert a conditional formatting rule to highlight a cell if it is over 10% +/- the prior month AND over $1,000 difference. I created helper columns, but the highlighting doesn't seem to match. Example of the data is below:
2024/0012024/0022024/003
6978.35​
1782.34​
1252.87​
141.36​
1277.49​
1147.84​
1139.09​

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Assuming your range is from A2 onwards I used the following conditional formatting formula:
Excel Formula:
=AND(OR(B2<A2-(A2*0.1),B2>A2+(A2*0.1)),ABS(A2-B2)>1000)
This seemed to work for me when I tested it on the dummy data you provided
