Hi @SH_94
If you want to manually add data to a workflow, you can add the Text Input tool with the data to be added and use a join to blend the data in the workflow with the manually added data.

Hi @ echuong1,
Yes It is the same. May i know how can I select the Company Code as first column as shown in the screenshot below?
In addition, could you please advise how should i remove the first row of the data after importing into Alteryx?

You can use a Select to change the column order.
It looks like your headers are not on the first line as well - in the Input, change the start line.

Hi @SH_94 ,
For the first question, you can use a select tool to move the fields into position. You can highlight a field or fields and use the right click and drag method, or you can use the arrows at the top:
For the second, you can use a sample tool to skip the first N records, where N=1.
Alternatively, you can use a filter tool to select where F1 is not null.

Hi @ echuong1.
Can you save the version of 2019.13 for your workflow? As i can't open it due to older version.
