Filter out a Value in Waterfall Chart

arnster_0-1594740895601.png

I have made this waterfall chart showing revenue movement from Q2 to Q3. Unfortunately, I cannot get rid of the "closing in q2 at start" value even when applying a filter on "Amount".

my dataset for the visual, looks like the above. To balance the "closing in q2 at start", I copied over the values from the 4/23 report to the proper breakdown in the 6/30 report. I have double-checked that the values match to 4 decimal places (we use 4 at most) and should zero out, but floating point calculations are giving me the 7E-5 value. I have tried applying various filters on Amount in the visual, but I cannot get rid of the middle breakdown. Is it possible to do this with filters or some other method?

@amitchandakI have the chart already set up, so unfortunately the video didn't address the problem. I just want to know if there is a way to remove the 7E-5 value from my waterfall as seen in the screenshot I provided. Any assistance is appreciated. Thank you for your time!

@Anonymous ,Can you share sample data and sample output in table format?

No problem. Here is a sample:

report_dateBreakdownAmount
6/30/2020closing in q2 at start18991258.7
4/23/2020closing in q2 at start18991258.7

In order to get the values to balance, 6/30/2020 has repeated the value from 4/23/2020. This makes the final value in the waterfall chart match to what the current revenue is. Unfortunately, as seen in the screenshot I first posted, I am left with a 7E-5 for this particular breakdown. I assume it's coming from floating point subtraction, but I cannot filter it out of the visual (please see the waterfall screenshot in my initial post for clarity)

Is it possible to filter out the 7E-5? None of the filters I have tried applying to the visual have worked.
