Hi @nagoor ,

I'm afraid I can't achieve what you want with the default waterfall. Anyway, it's a good idea. You can submit a new idea. It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products . What's more, if feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.

Alternatively, you can refer to the documentation below to see if your needs can be implemented in R or Phython.
