Obtain deciles in one function or tool

I know that I can use the "Summarize" tool to get a percentile.  However, what if I want the deciles?  I don't want to apply the Percentile function within the Summarize tool 10 times and enter the percentage rank each time.  I want one function or one tool that will provide the deciles (or any arbitrary set of evenly divided percentiles).

 

Is this possible in Alteryx?

 

By deciles, I mean the 10th percentile, 20th percentile, ... , 90th percentile, and 100th percentile.

@ecai,

 

Please try using the TILE tool.  You can create deciles there.

 

Cheers,

I have tried using the TILE tool, but I cannot keep the deciles to be used for further calculations. 

 

In short, I need to evaluate the deciles of multiple columns and then want to assign a value based on the decile of each column. The TILE tool appears to create a non-permanent naming that I can't use to assign a value. Can you help?

Hi,

 

Did you get a solution for your problem. I am facing a similar issue. I have grouped data based on a category and need to find percentiles (95,96,97,98,99) for a range of values for each of these categories.

 

Can someone help please ?.
