In my Example A is my key column.

This is how I would create a key column so that A,B and C must be the same:

In your Example A is also going in L and R. It should go to J as they are common in both in my example

 

Just have a check.

Ow I think I get what you want now:

This set up will put the A in the centre join and B and C in the left and right.

@rohit782192, you can cross tab it back like this:

No.

 

The Output Expectation is different.

@rohit782192 Can you show what you expect out of the left, right and centre eg:

Left:

A B
1 2

Centre:

C D
3 4

Right

NULL/Blank

A SHOULD BE 1 since it is common in both the input data tool

 

While Left and R should be fill with B and C column respectively.

@rohit782192 How does this differ to the solution I linked:

Right:

This might not be the best solution but if this is what you are looking for hope it helps!

 

Thanks!
