A card that splits the difference between two points into changes by factor. Use it to explain why operating profit or revenue changed.
Judgment built in (3)
Write items in order: the starting total, the changes by factor, the ending total. For the ending total, write only "type": "total" and it is filled from the running total.
Increasing factors are green and decreasing factors red (the same colors as the KPI badge); totals are orange. For a metric where lower is better, flip the colors with "better": "down".
The vertical axis starts at zero. When the changes are too small next to the totals for their bars to show, draw only the changes with Bar - Diverging.
Waterfall - Subtotal
waterfall-subtotal
A card that deducts items in turn from a large value, raising subtotals along the way. Use it to show a profit and loss structure from revenue to operating profit.
Judgment built in (3)
A total without a value ("type": "total") is the running total so far, so subtotals like gross profit and operating profit come out right on their own.
Totals and subtotals are orange, deducted items gray, and added items light orange. Costs are part of the structure, not bad values, so red is not used.
Change bars are rounded only at the end that moved, and a deducted item's value is written under its bar.
