Outer Join Issue

I am facing the below issue 

 

My Source A

IDNAME
1Jose
2Anna

My Source B

IDNAME
1Jose
4Roy

After outer join using Alteryx , I get the below results.

 
 
IDNAMERight_IDRight_Name
1Jose1Jose
2Annanullnull
4Joynullnull
 

 

But my expected output is as below, as I want to know which record is missing from which side .

IDNAMERight_IDRight_Name
1Jose1Jose
2Annanullnull
nullnull4Roy

 

Is there any way? Attaching my workflow

Hi @vdataqlalt 

 

You just have to change the config on the Union tool. Select the option to manually move the columns and it will give you what you are looking for.
