Hi @JDong,

 

You can use the Summarize tool to create these new fields.  You can create overall Min & Max values to append to your data table, or group by the Type, then Join back to your data table to get the Min & Max for each:

Hi @JDong ,

 

I guess, you want the MIN and MAX of Field1 for each entry in Field2. The MIN/MAX values can be found using a Summarize tool, you can join the result on [Field2] then.

I've attached a sample workflow. Let me know, if it works for you,

 

Best,

Hi,

 

In the actual scenario I have more than 30 columns.

 

Can I know how the join will work ?

 

Thanks

One column you want to calculate MIN/MAX and 29 additional columns with "keys" (product, attributes)? You'll have to join on all key fields (and include them in the Summarize tool). If you provide a sample file or the field list (e.g. from Select tool) it's easier to explain.
