Default Column Chart, Displaying two values on one column.


Hello,

Is it possible to display two value on one column. For example

Budget = 4.6%
Actual = -6.0%

I can display this on a column without any problems, one column for
budget and one for actual. Is it possible to add another value to the
Actual so it displays on the same column but in a different colour?
For example I would like to add:

Net = 2.3% and display this on the Actual column in a different
colour.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Brett

You can format a stacked column chart to resemble a clustered-stacked column
chart:

Keep in mind that stacking positive and negative items in a column chart
very often does not give the desired result.
