Combine multiple rows into one row

Question

Hello!

I am attempting to combine two date fields so that they can be plotted on the same axis.

My current data set is formatted like this:

IncidentAssigned toOpened DateResolved Date12345Joe1/1/20171/6/201723456Linda2/2/20174/1/201734567Bob3/3/20173/7/2017

My hope is to format it like this:

IncidentAssigned toDateDate Type12345Joe1/1/2017Open12345Joe1/6/2017Resolved23456Linda2/2/2017Open23456Linda4/1/2017Resolved34567Bob3/3/2017Open34567Bob3/7/2017Resolved

Can anyone help me to do this? I cannot seem to find the right tool.

Hey @aaltaffer! I would split the data into two different streams, the left only keeping the open date and the right only keeping the resolved date. I would rename the date fields as just 'Date'. Then, I would add a Formula to each stream that creates a Date Type field with the value "Open" in the one stream and "Resolved" in the other. Adding a Union will result the format you're wanting. Hope this helps!

This is the one select tool's configuration.

This is the other select tool's configuration along with the rest of the workflow.
