Good Day Everyone !
I have a requirement where I need to join two sheets of an excel file with a slight variation.
The result of the join tool in "J" and "L" parts need to be joined.
The Output of "J" has record ID's and duplicate groups. The Output of "L" has record ID's and duplicate groups.
The output for "J" has duplicate groups in pairs. Where pairs exist, no action is needed. Where pairs do not exist I need to extract the missing duplicate group from "L" and merge them together.
For example in the below data table 1, duplicate groups are in pair, for the ones that are not in a pair(some are highlighted in orange) should be identified in table 2 and merged with table 1.
table 1
