What i need is for each id i want multiple columns that list all the possible job titles. I don't have any way to cross tab this data. Can someone suggest a solution?

Thanks!

Hi @krishnagandhi,


This was fun 😛

I have cleaned the data and concatenated them together. After that I have used text to columns to split the data.

 

I wonder what are the other options to complete it.

Hi @krishnagandhi 

 

This can be accomplished by adding in a RecordID with the Multi-Row formula tool and grouping by ID.

See attached workflow. 

 

If this solves your issue please mark the answer as correct, if not let me know!

 

Thanks!

Hi @Maskell_Rascal,

 

Good old Multi-row formula 😀

I didn't think about it!

@Emil_Kos - one of my favorite things about Alteryx is how many different approaches there can be to a problem. 🤓
