Hi @Amy123 

 

Can you provide this in an excel file. What columns are you doing vlookup on and provide with sample output.

Hi @Amy123

 

vlookup is obviously an Excel function, so can you please describe what you're trying to do?

You've posted an unstructured data source, is this representative of what you have? A text file with no columns? If so, how would you perform a vlookup on this in Excel as there are no column delimiters?

Also, is it a case of you want to treat the first two rows as one data source, and rows 5 to 11 as the second?

Hi @atcodedog05 

 

 The output is not correct. the correct status column should be:-

 

Segment Order NumberConcatenate Order +SegmentBalanceStatus
1234 1234_15000Open
1234 1234_15000Open
1234 1234_20000Open
1234 1234_-100Closed
1234 1234_-100Closed
1234 1234_-32Closed
12343333331234_33333325Open

12343333331234_33333325Open

Hi @Amy123 

 

Can you let me know what are the mapping column. And as I can see all negative Balance are closed and all positive Balance are open. You can directly apply a formula.

Hi @atcodedog05 

 

We can have + ve in Balance as well for closed.

 

I don't have any mapping. I was not to do it so I check here maybe you can help me with some logic to get the desire output I am looking..

Thanks

That is important what is logic/criteria for an account to be open or closed. You need to ask in your team/client team around that. If you get the logic let us know we can help you out.
