Join horizontal data set to vertical dataset

I have two datasets and I have to join them but the challenge is one is vertical and another one is horizontal

 

Input:

 

Dataset 1:

NumbersampFundTypeNamevalueSelection type
1 ABCMSell123Yes
1 ABCMBuy1456Yes
 2ABC Buy0No
 2ABC Buy0No
 2ABC Sell0No
 3ABC Sell0No
 3ABC Call0No
 3ABC Call0No
 3ABC Call0No
 3ABC Put0No
 3ABC Put0No
 3ABC Put0No

 

Dataset 2:

FundSellBuyCallPut
ABC123145600
ABC0000
ABC0000

 

The rule is very simple I have to join based on fund, name, and value. 

After that, I have to paste the value of the selection type in front

 

Output:

FundSellBuyCallPutSelection type sellSelection type BuySelection type CallSelection type Put
ABC123145600YesYesNoNo
ABC0000NoNoNoNo
ABC0000NoNoNoNo

Hi @Sshasnk 

 

By using transpose and cross tab tools, I have been able to join the 2 datasets together and summarise to the output view that you need.

The dynamic rename tool can also be really helpful when you need to add the same string to a number of field names

Hope this helps!
