Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to combine/merge two data sets from two different sources, I have two identical fields (Account Number & Invoice Number) that are shown in both files/tables but the rest of the fields are different and have different number of Rows, How can I merge this data to have all information matching the fields Account Number and Invoice Number?, below is an example of the two sources and the final output (I highlighted the data that should be added). Thank you!
