    Yes please, this is honestly a great idea. I want to be able to show increase/decrease in a metric, but the overall total would be meaningless.

    Would be possible to remove the "Total" from the waterfall visualization? I have never seen a total in a waterfall. Thanks to apply this in your next upgrade.

    Never seen Total column in between each column in waterfall charts before. Please remove it or make it configurable at least. Otherwise this is excellent feature in PBI.

    Hello everyone i found a workaround to solve this total issue you guys are having.

    Step 1: Go to the format Tab and navigate to "X-Axis".

    Step 2: Keep increasing the "minimum category width" until the total tab disappears.

    I hope this helps as a temporary solution :)

    In the waterfall chart, I would like to be able to remove the total column as weell as to have the option to change the type of calculation. For instance, to have an average instead of having a sum of all

    Hello! I also agree that it would be very beneficial to remove a mandatory "total" column in the waterfall chart.

    Just need to compare several attribute without total.
    Please add option to hide total, or we can set total from field for base.

    Just ran into this issue. With the data that I'm showing it doesn't make sense to show a total.

    Thanks!

    This is indeed a critical issue. Turning on/off total bar is needed for a better visualisation of variance.
