Excel output file - Re-Arranging of tabs?

amithkumar070

I have 5 excel input files which I have combined together in a single output file in a different tab. Now, want to re-arrange the tabs the way I want.

 

For Example: From the output file first tab has to go last, and last tab has to come first. 

Is there any way I can do this in Alteryx? Since I am beginner, not sure how to do this. Appreciate help.

@amithkumar070 Are you using a batch macro to combine the files?

Thank you for the help. I have attached the output sample data also Input data.

 

In the output sheet I want see the Index Tab first and BTT tab last & STT Tab middle. This is just an example I have many tabs like this.

@amithkumar070 give this macro a try! 😀

 

The IF statement in the formula tool is driving the order. Customise that part as you see fit:
