Description
Create a Bar Chart for a cumulative sum. The numbers are correct. Adding a "Color By" feature to the Bar Chart causes the numbers to change incorrectly.
Symptoms: Missing data in some of the categories you have selected for the "Color By" feature.
Cause: After the “Color By” feature has been added, the cumulative sum will be calculated separately for each category in the “Color By”.

Resolution
You need to use "Date" column in the X-Axis, then select the "Compensate for missing values" check box that is found when you right-click on the visualization, then select Properties > Appearance > "Compensate for missing values" from the context-sensitive menu. See the attached file (Filename: KB-example.jpg) for reference.
