Create a new column in Workflow that increases value with each record

Question

Hi everyone,

I am trying to create a new column in my workflow in Alteryx where i start with the value 0 and then I increase this amount by 60 for each subsequent record.  So I would like my output to look like as follows:

Record            Time Value

1                      0

2                      60

3                      120

4                      180

5                      240

I attempted to do this by using the Generate Rows tool, but no matter how I configured the tool, the number of rows being generated were higher than the original record count of the file.

I would like to create this column in my workflow (starting at 0 and increasing the value for each subsequent record by 60), but I do not want to add any additional records/rows to my dataset.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @mkeiffer one approach would be to use the Multi_Row tool to achieve this I mocked up an approach which showcases how this might work.
