Macro help - right join

Hi,

 

why am I not having "Amt" appended with the word "Right" here? I am getting confused.

 

inner join output - 

 

NameMessageAmountProcessRight_NameRight_MessageAmtRight_AmtResult
LouisCate 2-5process|Cate 2    Data 1 Unmatched in Data 2
LouisCate14process|Cate1    Data 1 Unmatched in Data 2
Stevecate510process|Cate5    Data 1 Unmatched in Data 2

    LouisCate2 1Data 2 Unmatched in Data 1
    Alancate1 2Data 2 Unmatched in Data 1
    Rencate2 2Data 2 Unmatched in Data 1

 

im trying to make this output more readable. It doesnt really make sense for there to be a "amt" + 'right_amt'?

 

From the inner join output I do have right_name and right_process, but just "amt" ? 

 

please help!

You must have Amt in both the Left and Right Data Sources. On the Join join you can untick the one you dont want and rename the other one to a different name or remove the Right from the name.

The union tool is bringing in every field name from Left, Join and Right. If you want to consolidate the Right_Amt into Amt, uncheck the Amt in the Dynamic rename tool.

Hello, @wonka1234.

 

The "Amt" field is coming from the #1 input to the Union. If you deselect the field prior to the Union, you will not see that field.

@cjaneczko @lbardoe  needs to be dynamic. May not be amt

why isnt "amt" coming as "right_amt"? something wrong with the macro.. cant figure it out.

The tool adds the word Right to highlight that its the Amt field from the Right Input channel.
