Pulling specific values into a net column

peter-gillespie

Hi folks,


I've had a search around and can't find an answer (or can't think of the correct search term to find the answer, more likely....).

 

I have a dataset:

 

NameValue
Adjustment 1123
Adjustment 2456
Adjustment 3789
Adjustment 1 net100
Adjustment 2 net200
Adjustment 3 net300

 

I somehow need to make it look like this:

NameValueNet value
Adjustment 1123100
Adjustment 2456200
Adjustment 3789300

 

Essentially, the net values are currently stored in additional rows and need to be shifted up to a new column and placed on the same row and their corresponding gross value. The adjustment names will be the same every time so I don't need it to be dynamic.

 

Is this possible in Alteryx or do I need to go back to the datasource?

 

Thanks in advance!

Yes it is possible in Alteryx.

 

Find in attachement the way of doing this.

 

Let us know if it works as you want.

Hi @peter-gillespie 

 

This should give you what you need:

Split the stream between those containing the word net (with a space in front), using the Dynamic Rename tool add Net to the value header, strip out net from the name, and join back together using the Find & Replace tool.
