Hi Team,
I have got a requirement where i have one excel sheet as input file (Sample) and it has two sheets inside 'Colours' and 'Items'. I have to use analytic app to pull input fie out from its respective input folder and do the operation on both sheets differently. Is it possible to use Input file once and it picks up the sheets as per its calculations.
I am attaching sample file and sample workflow.
Ps: I cannot rule out use of Analytical App.
Please let me know , if need more information.
Regards

Hi @areeba ,
Yes, it is possible, but it will load them in as a unioned dataset in one stream. You would then need to split them up, and I'm not sure what benefit you would have in doing so.
Is there a specific problem your current build is causing?

Hi @mceleavey
No there is no problem in that , its just not to reuse same input file for different sheet.
But I think with your solution it will be more complicated.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi @areeba ,
yes, obviously the analytics app part complicates it slightly, but if you always have a fixed number of sheets then it's just simpler to do it the way you have.
If you want to get really creative you can have Alteryx generate the number of outputs based on the number of sheets you've selected, but now you're getting into really complicated grounds.
I think the way you've done it is just fine.
