@kjani  It can be done with a few adjustments to you table.

 

1. Add a sort column to your table - this is to make sure the line items appear in the right order.

2. Create a simple measure:

Gross Profit = CALCULATE(SUM(ProfitWaterfallTable[Amount]))

3. Add the Waterfall chart as shown in example. 

4. You can only add one customer at a time and exclude the Gross Revenue and Net Revenue using slicers - else it will not work. PBI help waterfall.png
