Conversion of data

EN6924

I have a daily backup related data. Please guide me to convert the values under column name "Data written" from size in TB/GB/MB/KB to a separate column and in only bytes.

 

Actually I wanted to sum all the values under "Data written" but values are in different size.

Hi,

 

You can create a lookup table for the byte values after parsing the data written column and use it in your solution (refer the attached workflow).

Hi,

 

Thanks for guiding me.

 

I already did it but that doesn't looks perfect to me.

 

1. I split the column into 2 parts.
