Hi @elfunambolo 

 

Please use select tool before the jointool and convert datatype to string or double. Please make sure datatype at both source was same.

@elfunambolo,

 

You have to add a select before the join and convert it to double :

It's not recommended to join on double fields.

 

Hope this helps,

Regards
