Hi @AKHAN ,

 

I used the method of transposing the data on each dataset, then joining together on the key fields and the column names.

Then I simply created an if statement to compare the two sets for differences.

I hope this helps.

In my earlier workflow I did not use Transpose which increase my workflow. Thanks a lot for suggesting simplifying workflow. Appreciated it.
