Remove blanks from simple waterfall chart

I need help in constructing a waterfall chart removing bars that are blank.

 

So here are my visuals:

I tried to add a filter to show bars only if the value is not blank. But the drop down menu is anavailable.
How can I adjust my graph?

Hi @marina-correa ,

Please follow these steps:

  1. Select the Waterfall chart.
  2. Drag Category to the Category field.
  3. Drag Amount to the Y-axis / Values field.(Change Aggregation from Count → Sum.)
    At this point, you’ll see blank bars for Discounts and Ending Balance.
  4. In the Filters pane, drag the Amount field to Filters on this visual.
  5. Choose Filter type: Advanced filtering → is not blank.
  6. Apply the filter → blank bars disappear.
