    I would like to create a waterfall chart that has multiple categories in each column.

    I would love to have this functionality in Power BI as well because we do the stacked waterfall in Excel manually every month. It is taking a lot of time. Thank you.

    Big miss for Power BI. Stacked Waterfall It is not available in Excel, which is exactly the reason it should be available in Power BI.

    Now I am stuck to create graphs in Excel and in Power BI... Because in Excel it is possible to construct the stacked waterfall. I use the word 'construct', because also in Excel you need considerable effort to do this.

    RE: Created a stacked waterfall chart

    there's an exisiting one similar to this for Excel
    https://peltiertech.com/Utility30/Documentation30/StackedWaterfall.html

    However I find the actual stacking between the start and end columns is not that helpful. I'd like one where the start column is stacked (e.g. 2016 revenue stacked by product), then each waterfall column has only a single product, and the end column has 2017 revenue stacked by product.
    The difficulty is that the x-axis is different. First and last columns are time based, intermediate waterfall columns are product/label based.
