Hi @Jmarquez 

 

Here is my solution.

 

Workflow:

atcodedog05_0-1621857278265.png

1. Using multi-row formula i am setting a group id for each Date

2. Using summarize tool to get sum for each data and max groupID

3. Setting area as Europe and Group ID as Max_GroupID+1

4. Join back with union

5. Sorting based on date and groupID.

 

Hope this helps 🙂

 

Edit : I guess me and @mceleavey 😅 ended up with same solution with slight difference.

thank you both for the quick response.

The solution is very interesting and almost covers my needs.

 

I may have left some aspects out because I tried to summarize the problem too much.

 

The problem I have is that not all areas have records for all days so the Id code does not match and I can't do the europe category.

 

Another aspect is that in some records I have information for Europe already calculated beforehand, so it would have to be added to the aggregation calculated (it does not seem a big inconvenience).

 

any idea about it ?

 

Thanks !

Hi @Jmarquez ,

 

without posting a representative sample of data it will be very difficult for us to see the problem.
