waterfall chart with multiple calculations from two tables.

I am currently facing a challange in creating the desired water fall chart model. 

 

Scenario: Each of these categorizations are different measures from two tables.

I was thinking of coming at this problem in in two ways.

 

One, by adding multiple measures into Waterfall chart, which is not possible as the chart accepts only one measure or column. Please let me know if I am wrong in this.

Second, by creating these 13 measures in a single column by having 13 rows with their own formule. I know this sounds dumb, but i am thinking out options to create this.

 

Data relating to this is looks like the below table:

TypePlan Qty (t)Plan Rev A$KPlan A$/t Actual Qty (t)Actual Revenue A$KActual A$/t Delta Qty (t)Delta Revenue A$KDelta A$/t Volume Variance A$KPrice Variance A$KTotal Variance A$K

The blue highlighted figures are the x-axis measures that are represented.  

 

Thanks in advance for the help

Hi, @Anonymous 

 

The following is a hint of the waterfall chart, and it is not feasible to put 13 measures as you expect.

For the second method, you can refer to the following link, hoping to help you.

Hi @v-zhangti  Thanks for the links. They helped me figure out my issue. I have an issue when we start to apply the measures in waterfall chart. 

So,

 Step 1: I created a single column containing the names of all the measures in a new table, and wrote a measure linking the names to the actual measure. The waterfall chart that appears is attached below.

However, I would like the waterfall chart to compare Plan Revenue(on the left most column) against Actual Revenue (on the right most column) like below:

This will give me the journey of where my costings went.

 

Is there a way to order them and make sure that Plan revenue (from first image) starts from 0 rather than 67k?
