Alteryx table creation

[Kumar_vs]

I am trying to compare two excels, one has last week data and another one has current data. 

1) I am trying to identify common items in last two weeks - need count break up by type of item 

2) items which are not there last week but added this week - need count break up by type of item 

3) Items which are there last week but not there this week - need count break up by type of item 

I am looking for the count for the above, how to get this data? any kind of help would be great help. i am trying to create a table for the above where i want to see the data with alteryx workflow.

I would use a Join tool and select the field(s) that need to be compared between the two. Any "matching" records will come out of the J anchor, and any unmatching records will come out of the respective L and R anchors!

@Kumar_vs  - building on @alexnajm 's comment.  Does this work for what you need?

[DanielG]

It is a very simple example workflow, but I think the concept would work.  😀

[Kumar_vs]

thank you for the replies, i want to present the above like a table 

[DanielG]

@Kumar_vs  -- do you mean building the report in Alteryx?  See this updated workflow for a basic table (with header) example.  

[DanielG]

The Reporting Tool allow for much greater customization of the reports.  This is just a basic example again.  :)

Much appreciated , thank DanielG for guiding me on this
