Hi @arlok2005 I mocked up a workflow let me know what you think?

Hi @arlok2005 

 

To do this, you can apply a RecordID at the start of the workflow to provide your groups. Then using a Text to Columns tool you can 'Split to Rows' which will get the table you are after!

 

I have attached a workflow which replicates this. Let me know if this works.

 

Kind Regards

Will

Create a Record ID before the split, then just add GROUP and remove the Record ID field
