Joins

I am using join to compare two data sets and some columns have null values. The L, R and J output returns records but it also gets joined on Null values and it returns those as matched values. How to ignore the join on null values and only match the ones with values in it?

@aparna0208,

 

Easiest thing would be to filter out nulls first, then join. If you want the null fields after the join, you can always union them back in.

 

Best,
