Create a date column based on values of another Column

I currently have a workflow that outputs 2 columns; column A outputs Days Past Due with values 60 through to X and Column B with a count of customers at their respective Days Past Due. I would like to output a third column based on Column A values. The new column should output a date. Essentially; "IF Days_Past_Due >= 93 THEN [Today's Date]" All values less than 93 would progressively add 1 day to today's date. I have attached a sample table in Excel CSV format to show what my thoughts are without knowing the exact expression I would use to create the 3rd column dates.

I am using In-DB connection tools within Alteryx.

Hi @Dwayne_Calvert ,

 

I've mocked up a workflow that I think answers your question. You can bring data out and in of the DB stream by using a data stream out and data stream in tools at the start and at the end of the normal workflow.

 

Let me know if it worked for you.

 

Regards,
