Hello Everyone,

 

I am in need of assistance.  I know that the fields in my data set all match (Numbers); however, when I bring the data into Alteryx, I get the join error stated above.

 

Left

Right

Any assistance will be appreciated.

@Fescobar 
you BPN field is in Numeric Type (Double). I think that is the cause.

I converted the Joint Key Fields to V-String with a Select Tool

Is it suppose that no output from Joint?

Thank you for relying...

 

Yes, these will end up on a joined document.  In the final I’m expecting to have left/right/join sheets on a spreadsheet.

 

I’ll plug in your workflow and give it a whirl.

 

Thank you!!
