Hello everyone,
I am struggling with a waterfall chart and am hoping for your support. I'd like to visualize this table as a waterfall chart:
What I already have managed is to e. g. visualize the waterfall for customer 1:
Analogously, I receive the same charts when putting customer 2 or customer 3 into "Values".
However, what I am looking for is the possibility to select the customer from within the chart or as a filter, so that I can publish the chart and my recipients can select the customer they are interested in. With the current setup, this is (as to my current knowledge) not possible.
Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance and best regards
Olifer
@Olifer the best approach is to unpivot your data,
Transform Data -> Select Waterfall Block column -> right click -> Unpivot other columns
it will give you two-column, attribute and value, rename these columns if you want, close, and apply.
Now you can use the attribute column as a slicer and value column in the waterfall, this way, you can see data for any customer.
