Union data set without sorting

aeolus187

Hi Engineers,

 

How could we union data without sorting data?

for example i have data like

COL ACOL B 
AAACCC
BBBDDD

My expected result is 

COL ACOL B 
AAACCC
BBBDDD
AAACCC
BBBDDD
AAACCC
BBBDDD

Hey @aeolus187 ,

 

In your union tool, you can set up the output order at the bottom.

This sorting happens when you are using the same dataset only, if you have two different datasets, that will not occur.

I think that you want to append fields.  

data output connects to an append fields T & S anchors. 

deselect target field B and deselect source field A. Allow for ALL appends.  

magic!

@aeolus187  Create a union of all the table and use sort option for the table, which will help you in not sorting by the fields.
