Set starting point for waterfall chart

How do I set the starting point on my waterfall chart? I have budget numbers > the 3 drivers in revenue and then the actual revenue at the end which I can set as neutral colour.

I need to set my first value (budget) as a neutral colour also, it considers it as an increase currently.

Hi @JordanM1 and welcome to the QuickSight community!
It looks like waterfall charts handle the coloring options different than the other visual types and only allows you to set color to the options in the legend (or the metrics created on default with a waterfall chart). I tested out setting up field colors but waterfall charts seem to ignore this optioning as it’s organized by actuals, increase and decrease.
It would be nice to have more customization on waterfall charts and the coloring so I’ll mark this as a feature request to promote visibility to the support team.

Hi @JordanM1,

Following up here as it’s been awhile since we last heard from you on this thread; did you have any additional questions regarding your initial post?

If we do not hear back within the next 3 business days, I’ll close out this topic.

Thank you
