You can use Join tool to vlookup.

But there is the problem.

2 record of N Sep20.xlsx have the same Invoice num, so the data is multiplying at Join tool.

You can use unique tool to remove the data. But I don't know how to handle ”N Sep20.xlsx”.

 

Please refer attached file.

Hey AK,

 

That's fine. It will sum up right?

 

Can you just help me with workflow - how to apply vlook up for the below two columns along with the first vlook up in the same workflow itself.

 

. Vlook up File - Column 1

Vlook up File - Column 1

Sales Report – Standard rated value

N Sep20 - COUNTRY_CURR_AMT

 

Thank you!

I sum up them by Summarize tool.

I'm sure that vlookup has already accomplished.

Is this different from what you want?

Hey Hi AK,

 

I am not getting the same output which you showed below. I can't see 'The country curr. amt' and 'VAT amt' in the final output. 

 

Can you please tell me how did you get this?

Hi @NehaNevrekar 

 

At the Select tool, required fields didn't come into output because "Unknown" is not checked.
