How can I change the text associated with each color on my legend?

I created a legend based on a quick calculation, but I want to change the associated text. How can I change the text of each item in my legend? Thanks!

Hi,

You need to create the new calculated column as the new text you want and use it in your legend field.

If you mean others please say a sample to clarify for me.

So I can't just change the text as is? I have my legend currently saying "Amount running total in FY", and I would prefer that it say just "Cumulative Amount"

I calculated this using a quick calculation, so I'm not sure how to translate this to a new column since it is aggregated by fiscal year. @MahyarTF
