Hi There! 

 

Below is a simplified version of my dataset that I am trying to transponse/simplify into a table:

 

RecordF1F2
1Unit Number

Entity A

2PreparerJohn Doe
3 Data Submitted3/1/8/2022
4Unit NumberEntity B
5PreparerBob Smith
6 Data Submitted4/22/2022

 

I would like my data to look like this:

 

RecordUnit NumberPreparerData Submitted
1Entity AJohn Doe3/18/2022
2Entity bBob Smith4/22/2022

 

I think this is a simple solution but I am new to Alteryx and struggling with which tool to use here. Thanks!

Hey @laurenali,

Think this is what you want:

Essentially you need to determine which fields belongs to each entity to do that I used a multi row. Then I grouped by that in the cross tab. Please ask if you have any questions.

HTH,

Ira

To remove duplicate rows you can use a summarize tool and group by all the columns.
