Filter same ID for different client names

beatrizmguerreiro

Hello,

 

In my dataset I have the following table. 

IDClient name
123

Client A

456Client B
789Client C
0147Client A
456Client C

 

I need two soluction here: make sure each client has its own ID and that each ID has refers to only one client. I would like to filter, in case there are any clients with two different ID. 

In this case, I would have to filter the last 2 lines, because these don't follow my requirements. 

 

Thank you in advance.

Hi @beatrizmguerreiro,

 

to do so, you can use a summarize and group by ID, count distinct by client name and then filter on the ID where you have more than 1 client name. You can then use this with a join for your dataset.

Hello Ladarthur, 

 

 

In the case above, I explained that I need both checks:

* check if I had multiple ID for a client

* check if I had multiple client names for one id.

 

In your solution, the join tool is indicating as unique value one client with different VAT IDs.

Can you help me here?
