Hello Alteryx Community,

 

I have been searching on the community for this topic, but could not find any. Not sure if this is possible to do, I would really appreciate if you could help.

 

I have two spreadsheet (#1 and #2) and i joined them together, if there is new data then I would get rows in my right/outer join (which is the data that I am concern of).

 

Then I have a spreadsheet call reference,

what I want to do is to look at the rows from reference spreadsheet and replace entire row that matches two records (country and holiday) from the result of the joined spreadsheet.
