The charted volume totals for each breakdown when comparing two categories, such as year to year, are the sum of the volumes in both years. They should be the difference between the first year and the second year.
For example, the tool tip correctly displays the first year volume at 482,149 and the second year volume at 592,895, but is displayed as 110.7K on the chart. It should be 592.9k, or just the volume change for that breakdown from the first year to the second year.
If some users need it to work the way it is, could you put a switch to measure only the change between categories as opposed to the total for both categories?
Also, the breakdown needs to be enabled for hierarchies/drilldowns. I will add that as another post.
The waterfall chart is the most useful chart for my company, and you have it to the point that I can almost use it. Thanks for the continuing development.

RE: Waterfall Chart Breakdown Volume Problem
Hi there,Yes I support Tony's comment above. Unless I am mistaken then the waterfall breakdown is sorted by values of the breakdown (high to low being the default) as opposed to any column order sorting down at the table level. This type of analysis often calls to show movement in returns from volume or pricing and it would make sense to see these together as opposed the being sorted by the default arrangement.CheersDave
RE: Waterfall Chart Breakdown Volume Problem
Hi,I'd like to be able to do a Custom Sort on the Waterfall Chart breakdown.I'd like it to always show the breakdown in the same order, irrespective of the volume amounts.Kind regards
