Change the Text of a Legend Item (Report Builder and SSRS)
When a field is placed in the Values area of the chart, a legend item is automatically generated that contains the name of this field. Every legend item is connected to an individual series on the chart, with the exception of shape charts, where the legend is connected to individual data points instead of individual series.
On shape charts, you can change the text of a legend item to show more information about the individual data points. For example, if you want to show the values of the data points as percentages in the legend, you can use a keyword such as #PERCENT. You can append .NET Framework format codes in conjunction with keywords to apply numeric and date formats. For more information about keywords, see Formatting Data Points on a Chart (Report Builder and SSRS).
On non-shape charts, you can change the text of a legend item. For example, if your series name is "Series1", you may want to change the text to something more descriptive like "Sales for 2008".
