Random Selection by Group Not Working

[Drakitha]

Hello,

I have a file that comes in every day with random accounts. I need to sample some from each Taxing authority, so I used the sort and group by function. However nothing is pulling to my sample from the workflow, it is just coming up blank.

Am I doing something wrong?

What's the configuration of your Sample tool? I would likely select "1 in N chance to include each row" if you want it to take a random amount each time.

Otherwise you could look at the Random % Sample tool if you don't need to group by anything / use it to create a batch macro to do it for each group of data.
