I am a beginner and could use your help to build a workflow. Thank you so much in advance.
I am given following three input tables:
Table 1 - Amount by Customer by State by Month
Table 1 - Amount Table | ||||
Cust ID | State | Jan | Feb | Mar |
2 | GA | 10 | 15 | 25 |
2 | CA | 20 | 25 | 35 |
2 | NY | 30 | 35 | 45 |
4 | CA | 25 | 30 | 40 |
4 | GA | 15 | 20 | 30 |
Table 2 - Weights table. This table need to multiply with Table 1 (joining by State)
Table 2 - Weight Table | ||||
State | Jan | Feb | Mar | |
GA | 0.80 | 0.70 | 0.50 | |
CA | 0.70 | 0.60 | 0.40 | |
NY | 0.60 | 0.50 | 0.30 |
Table 3 - Rates table (for price and cost)
Table 3 - Rates Table | ||
Cust ID | Revenue | Cost |
1 | 10.0 | 3.0 |
2 | 6.0 | 2.0 |
3 | 8.0 | 1.0 |
4 | 7.0 | 5.0 |
5 | 4.0 | 5.0 |
Here is the output table:
Intermediate step - multiple table 1 and table 2
Output by multiplying Table 1 and 2 (Join by State) | ||||
Cust ID | State | Jan | Feb | Mar |
2 | GA | 8.00 | 10.50 | 12.50 |
2 | CA | 14.00 | 15.00 | 14.00 |
2 | NY | 18.00 | 17.50 | 13.50 |
4 | CA | 17.50 | 18.00 | 16.00 |
4 | GA | 12.00 | 14.00 | 15.00 |
Here is final output table by applying rates:
Final Output Needed | |||||
Line | Cust ID | State | Jan | Feb | Mar |
Revenue | 2 | GA | 48.00 | 63.00 | 75.00 |
Revenue | 2 | CA | 84.00 | 90.00 | 84.00 |
Revenue | 2 | NY | 108.00 | 105.00 | 81.00 |
Revenue | 4 | CA | 122.50 | 126.00 | 112.00 |
Revenue | 4 | GA | 84.00 | 98.00 | 105.00 |
Cost | 2 | GA | 16.00 | 21.00 | 25.00 |
Cost | 2 | CA | 28.00 | 30.00 | 28.00 |
Cost | 2 | NY | 36.00 | 35.00 | 27.00 |
Cost | 4 | CA | 87.50 | 90.00 | 80.00 |
Cost | 4 | GA | 60.00 | 70.00 | 75.00 |
Profit | 2 | GA | 32.00 | 42.00 | 50.00 |
Profit | 2 | CA | 56.00 | 60.00 | 56.00 |
Profit | 2 | NY | 72.00 | 70.00 | 54.00 |
Profit | 4 | CA | 35.00 | 36.00 | 32.00 |
Profit | 4 | GA | 24.00 | 28.00 | 30.00 |

Hi @anamik72,
I think I got it:
Output:
Values seem to be right from what I checked. It's not sorted to exactly match your table yet.
What happens:
1) I Shift all the columns (besides Key-Columns) to rows for easier Join
2) I calculate the Profit right at the beginning with an additional column
3) Join everything based on key + month
4) Calculate everything (only one formula needed)
5) Shift everything back
6) Order the columns
7) Sort by Line
Workflow attached. Let me know what you think.
Best
Alex
Hi @anamik72 I mocked up a workflow and tried to design so it's dynamic as possible so can handle more months and will sort automatically in order. Let me know what you think?
Thank you so much. This took care of it. And I found it very easy to follow. I can now scale it for entire dataset. Much appreciated.
Thank you Alex. Yes, I follow your logic and it takes care of my issue. Thanks again for helping me out. And for being so prompt.
