Symptom

Environment

SAP ANALYTICS CLOUD: 2024.21.8 


Reproducing the Issue

  3. Create a waterfall chart using unbooked value for the datapoint. 

    Notice that members in waterfall chart will appear in incorrect sequence. 

Cause

  • This is a limitation of the waterfall chart. 
  • Unbooked data is not supported for calculated dimensions.
