Hi, we are trying to use the waterfall chart in our report. In our waterfall, we need to compare between Actual (cumulative across afew categories) and the last bar would be Total Plan for the year. Unforunately it seems that Fusion waterfall chart does not support that. Is there any way to work around this?

cheers

Hi,

Welcome to FusionCharts Forum!

Could you please try setting the attribute "showSumAtEnd" to '1' in the <chart> element? Also, you can provide a distinct label for the summation column using the attribute "sumLabel".

Furthermore, you can set the attributes "isSum" and "cumulative" to '1' in the <set> element to solve your purpose.

The attribute "isSum" lets you set whether the <set> value should represent the sum of previous set values in the water fall chart. You can put a sum column at any position in the chart (barring the first position, as you need at least one data point to calculate sum).

The attribute "cumulative" lets you set whether the sum represents the cumulative sum (of all the columns to the left of this sum column) or non-cumulative sum (of all the columns to the left of this column, but after the last sum column).

In case you still have issues, please send us the XML as an attachment.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. For the last column, it is a separate entity altogether. It has no corelation between the last column to the previous columns. Therefore, the last column is a
-> non cumulative or non sum
-> AND the most important part is the last column starts from ZERO position so that we can do a COMPARISON between the sum of previous columns and the last column.

cheers

Hi,

Apologies for the inconvenience.

I am afraid, the Waterfall chart of the PowerCharts pack does not support this, as of now.
