Max() for each order-no

Borisham

Hello guys,

 

I need to get for each order-id(V_string) the highest number of colour-id(int32) and the max date(date)... how could I do that ?

 

Thanks for help

Use the Summarize tool.  Group by Order id.  Max Colour id.  Max Date.

 

Beginning users can find some great information on the Alteryx web site under Academy.

Hi @Borisham,

 

In a similar way to @ChrisTX i'd use a summarise tool, thought i'd mock up an example:

Thanks your help guys.

 

Can you explain to me a bit why you have chose Max for name and address ?

Hi @Borisham,

 

I'm going to amend my solution as i don't think it works properly as expected to go a slightly different way. Summarise on Order id and take max color id and max date. Join this back to the original dataset on the three fields to only keep those rows. Hopefully this makes a little more sense?
