Flagging the duplicated entries

Hi Alteryx family.

I am trying to create a flag based on two data fields:

 

If the [ID’s] are the same AND the [years] are the same, THEN “True” Else “False”

 

I tried sorting and using the multirow formula, but it does not work for all the rows though they meet the requirements. Please help

#

ID

year

1

100

2003

2

102

2000

5

2008

7

For your Multi-Row Formula, is the size of your newly created field set to 4? It needs to be set to something bigger to accommodate "False" (i.e. 5 or greater)!

Hi Alex

 

thanks, I have increased it. but my problem is the fact that the cells that I have in red boxes are supposed to be True.
