As promised, here is a step-by-step guide on how to create a Waterfall chart in Tableau as shown in this recent blog post about Facebook’s income statements recently made available at the SEC website here.

It makes use of this Excel reshaping add-in as Tim Costello of Interworks shows how to use in this helpful video.

Let me know if you like this format – it’s worked well for the Tableau user group here in L.A.

Take care,
Ben
