Hi @vishnu_2920 ,
Here is a workflow grouping based on address and counting number of company for each address !
Hi @vishnu_2920 ,
If you can create a lookup-table like atcodedog05 used in his solution, this is the most precise way of doing it. Using a summarize tool afterwards like in Jean-Balteryx solution can count the number of companies for the same address.
If the lookup-table is not an option, you can use fuzzy matching to group addresses together.
Your data looks like the address field can have spelling mistakes, hence you need to group similar names together. This can be done with 'Fuzzy Matching'. See example attached.
You have to adjust the settings of the fuzzy match tool to match your data. It is not an exact science, and often you are not able to find all similar names. But it helps you to automate parts of the manual work.
Please mark this as the solution if it answers your question, it will help others to find solutions quicker.
