Find uniques based on parts of date field and parts of a string field

Hi Community

 

I have a dataset with incidents for Network Links.

 

It contains the Router Names and the Ticket created time. The network link can have 1 to 3 routers. If all of the routers are down at the same time I need to mark it as Full outage:

 

Example:

Router Name                                        Ticket                       Create Date

any-lani-prod-us-nyc-c-003003REF00004766878318.08.2017 12:46
any-lani-prod-us-nyc-c-004004REF00004766893218.08.2017 12:55

 

The name is unique up to the numbers (Italic)

The date is unique up to the hour. (italic)

 

Is there any formula available to create a new field based on these data ?

 

Many thanks in advance

 

Steffen

Hi @chvizda 

 

I'm sure there might be a more sophisticated approach but let me know if the attached workflow will work for you.
