It would be great to be able to add a grand total column/row to a column/bar chart. For instance, if I have four sales regions and I plot sales by region on a clustered column chart, I would like to be able to add a fifth column that shows the total for all regions. Similar to this functionality in Tableau: http://onlinehelp.tableau.com/current/pro/online/mac/en-us/calculations_totals_grandtotal_turnon.html

RE: Ability to add grand total to column/bar charts

It is puzzling that this is not already implemented.

Hi MS team. It's been close to 3 years since the idea was posted. Kindly request to add this functionality at the earliest across all the charts(column, line).

Thanks,
Vivek

MS guys do not be afraid to ask your HR to get more staff to get this feature done. This is not a rocket science.

RE: Ability to add grand total to column/bar charts

This is a very important feature that should be available in all reporting tools. Totals are required in most of the reports and therefore, you should give a priority to this feature.
Thank you.
