Waterfall Chart display unncessary negative value on Y axis

[dangitkaren]

I can't figure out this individual (team member) have negative space on the Y-axis or the base line not from 0? 
Everyone else seem fine .  This is hurting my head I cant figure out .  Please help!  I hope someone experienced this before can guide my thru where i should do my digging. Thanks in advance! (Using "Simple Waterfall" addon visuals)

Hi @dangitkaren 

This happens because the bar is being treated as a negative/decrease even though you expect it to start from zero. In Waterfall visuals (including Simple Waterfall), the Y-axis adjusts if one category is mis-classified or returns a blank/negative value.

Fix:

• Check that your measure doesn’t return blank or a negative sign for that data point (replace blanks with 0).

• In the visual’s formatting, set that bar’s Breakdown type correctly (Increase/Decrease/Total). If it’s wrongly flagged as Decrease, it will create the unwanted negative space.

Once the data sign and category type are corrected, the Y-axis baseline will behave as expected.

What is your expected result, and is that expected result supported by your data deltas?
