One click to add total label to stacked chart in Excel

Sometimes, while you insert a stacked chart in Excel, you may want to insert the total labels to get the sum of the stacked data as below screenshot shown. In Excel, you need to insert a helper column to calculate the totals firstly, then insert the stacked chart and change the total data series to another type of chart and then to show the total labels and hide the total series, which is too complex for most of Excel users.
