Compare Data in 2 Sources with a primary key

[vdataqlalt]

My requirement is to create a report after comparing data between two source ie compare employee data between two sources and identify the employee data is in sync between two sources.

SOURCE A

EMP_NUM   NAME    CITY

1                          JO             Dubai

2                          KO             Paris

SOURCE B

Source B

EMP_NUM   NAME    CITY

1                      JO            Newyork

2                      KO           Paris

My report should compare each employee raw by raw and create a report like below

A.EMP_NO	B.EMP_NO	EMP_NO_MATCH	A.NAME	B.NAME	NAME_MATCH	A.CITY	B.CITY	CITY_MATCH
1	1	Match	Jo	Jo	Match	Dubai	Newyork	Mismatched
2	2	Match	KO	KO	Match	Paris	Paris	Match

how can we do this?

I normally like to do a transpose/crosstab approach as seen below because it makes it easier to read across your data and filter if desired. Workflow is attached for reference.

thanks ..there are chances that the record in source A  is completely missing in source B..how can we report that

You can add a union tool directly after the join and have both the L, the J, and the R from the Join tool feeding into the union. This way all records will come through even when there isn't a match.

Thanks.I have added a Union, but after the transpose, I get the records which are common only,

if I get a separate column telling 'Present In Both' , 'Not In Source B', Not In Source A' that is also fine
