Duplicate Row based on condition and add 6 months to [Date] column for new record

Hello everyone,

 

I just started learning Alteryx this month and have begun on my first use-case and I have been stumped by this for half a day. Intense googling didn't offer any solution, so here am I. 

 

So, I want to duplicate rows that has a "Flag = 1" and add 6 months to the existing [Date] value for the new record. 

I spent an inordinate amount of time to get 'Generate Rows' tool to work but the closest I got was for the date to get replicated till eternity (error) as I couldn't stop the loop.   The tutorial in the tool only had examples for creating a new column, which does not suit my purpose.

 

Feel like it should be a simple solution but for I just can't figure this out for the life of me. Grateful for any help!!

Thanks in advance!

 

Below a sample of my data. 

 

Input:

IDNameDateFlag
1172569Small Company01/07/20241
0760389Mid-sized Company01/04/2024 
1402646Medium Company01/08/2024

1285462Gigantic Company01/04/20241
1291444Humongous Company01/04/2024 

 

Desired Output - additions font formatted for easier sighting:

Thanks for the prompt reply @binuacs !!

 

I was trying very hard to get it to work only within the Generate Rows Tool but I will go with your suggestion. 

 

Thanks a million!!
