Hi Alteryx Team,

 

Is there a tool/formula I can use to split my data in such a  way there are 2 results in the workflow -

NAMEAMOUNT
MTO5
CTO9
KTO1
BTO56
MTO21
CTO99

 

Result to further work on should be -

NAMEAMOUNT
MTO5
MTO21
CTO9
CTO99

and,

NAMEAMOUNT
KTO1
BTO56

 

Please help.

Hey @henrygeorge 

 

Can do this pretty easily with a Filter tool.  Example attached

If you have more than just those two buckets to create, you could use the same process to add additional filters.

Hi,

 

I've filtered just for where Name = 'MTO' or 'CTO'

 

Formula in the filter [NAME] IN ('CTO', 'MTO')

 

Table 1:

Table 2:

If this solves your issue please mark as correct, if not let me know! I've attached my workbook for you to download if needed.

@Jonathan-Sherman @NickSm The Filter Tool can't be used here. As I don't want to filter it based on MTO and CTO. They should be automatic - in such a way that if KTO/MTO/BTO is matched with another KTO/MTO/BTO then, they should shown separately and the other single names should be shown separately. Basically if the names match push to separate result to work on; if names don't match push those names to another result to work on. Please advice how I can achieve this.

Hi,

 

Does this achieve what you're looking for in that case? Effectively, checking how many of each name exist and filtering for where the count > 1.
