Template based on a criteria

Hello,

 

I have 10 different templates that have specific columns depending on the process, could you recommend a workflow that selects the applicable template based on the process column value?

 

For example:

 

The input data has several columns and in the column process has SAS then the workflow has to select the SAS template and auto-populate the values for the SAS columns from the input file to this template.

 

Best,

Mabel

Hi Mabel

 

Couple of questions for you. Do all of the input data have standardized field names and start on the same row, or can it vary? Like if a spreadsheet has headers and the data starts on row 5 versus another template starts on row 1.

 

He's a sample workflow I think may solve your issue.

Hello,

 

It will depends on the template.  Here is an example of the input data:

 

Report IDTemplateClient #Client NameDateClass 2Class 1ErrorStatusInquiryCustomer Service assignednotesdepartment IDProductDescription
1SAS234DOE4/12/202210N/AIn progresserror typeJaneerror564cloudcloud product
               

 

SAS Template would be 

 

Report IDClient #DateStatusInquiry
1234 4/12/2022In progresserror type

 

and the columns will vary depending of the template.

Hi Mabel

 

Give this workflow a shot. To get this to work you'll want to put your field names for the templates as rows. Its a little more complicated than my original reply but hopefully this addresses your issue.
