    is this a screenshot from OAC? I don't believe it is as OAC automatically aligns the left and right of the sankey chart. I have attached a screenshot of a sankey chart with 3 categories similar to your screenshot and as you can see it lines up the left and right sides automatically.

    If you notice COGS doesn't align with Gross Profit.

    This is because the data behind the sankey chart in the YouTube video seems to have a hierarchical structure where certain financial metrics roll up into higher-level metrics.

    We have similar financial hierarchical structure as the original image (similar to youtube link). I aware that data hierarchy is different. The 1st image clearly shows that hierarchy is different.

    We want Cost of Sales to align with Gross of Profit but couldn't find OAC sankey property for that.

    Sankey has a Group By property that you can set to Value for hierarchical data.
