Hi @Uma_Shankar0201, you should be able to bring in the .txt file as is inside Alteryx using a regular input tool, after which you can use a combination of text-to-column and sample tools to transform the data within Alteryx.

 

When brining in the .txt file, make sure to bring it is as csv format, and set the delimiter to \0. This ensure alteryx brings the raw data into the canvas as-is.

Thank you Abhilash for helping me. But my main requirement is to fetch date, Yr/QTR and remaining in tabular format same as I attached with query.  May I have complete solution to get this format.
