Create multiple records from single record

robshiffer
7 - Meteor

I have data on several different vendors, which includes all of the vendor's locations in a single record. What I want to be able to do is create an individual record for each vendor location combination

 

e.g.

from

vendor 13xyz3xyzChicagoTom JonesHoustonJon Doe  
vendor 22xyz2xyzNew YorkJim SmithLABetty WhiteSFJohn Smith

 

to

vendor 13xyz3xyzChicago

Tom Jones

vendor 1 xyz3xyzHoustonJon Doe
vendor 22xyz2xyzNew yorkJim Smith
vendor 22xyz2xyzLABetty White
vendor 22xyz2xyzSFJohn Smith

 

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

@robshiffer,

 

Elegant, no.  Does the job?  I think so.

This isn't very dynamic, but the approach may work for you.
