How to perform correct lookup by using Mapping Table

Good Morning ALteryx ACE/Alteryx Lovers

 

I am facing challenge in mapping my final data with other mapping Table. Can some one please help me getting the Desired output:

 

Mapping Table :

 

Mapping 1.PNG

Actual Data

Mapping 2.PNG

 

Requirement:

Based on mapping Table, I need to add three columns (L1 Member, L2 member and L3 member) on my existing data source and show their respective values .Now the tricky part here is to is to check individual Columns (ID 1,RC Level 1,ID 2,RC Level 2 and So on) respectively. For example :

When there is any value in

ID 1,RC Level 1 say $C and Corporate - L1 Member - SAM

ID 2,RC Level 2 say $CA and Corporate Audit - L2 Member - ALICE

ID 3,RC Level 3 say $CAA and Corporate Advisory - L2 Member - JESSICA

 

Point to be Noted :So here mapping table data should check each column one of the original data source one after the another and assigning the correct Value .For example in Row 1 Actual data has columns ID 1 and level and  if ID1 has Value then their respective L1 will come,IF ID 2 is their then respective L2 will come (Provided the L1 is same for ID 1 and Level 1 is same Like SAM) and IF ID 3 is there their then respective L3 will come (Provided the L1 and L2 are same for ID 2 and Level 2 Like SAM and ALICE)

As you can see in the highlighted example - L3 Member is JOHN not JACKY

Attaching the dataset for your reference.

My alteryx Version : 2018.3

 

Please let me know the correct way to map . In my dataset there are roughly around 30 Million rows are data which needs to be mapped

Expected Output :

hi @rajvivan11 

 

Can you explain exactly why your row 3 is SAM, ALICE,JESSICA and not SAM, JOHN, JESSICA?   The lookups here are $M-Managing Fee and  $CAA-Corporate Advisory, neither of which have ALICE as a possible member.

I am extremely sorry for creating confusion. yes you are right, it should be sam Vince Jessica..while writing the output..i was making changes so that i can cover all possible scenarios but I think i missed some important points.$M is part of Level 2 so Vince will come .sorry for causing the unnecessary confusion .

Thanks @rajvivan11 

 

Also for Row 3.  What logic do you use to assign SAM as level 1?  The level 1 ID is null

As you can see .level 1 is fixed and it's always Sam..he is highest in the
hierarchy(CFO) and will always be SAM

Hello @rajvivan11 ;

 

Actually, I cannot understand why row 3 is not SAM, VINCE, JESSICA. Because, the  $M Managing Fee should say Level 2, VINCE?

I think while replicating the mapping Table i missed row 3 completely which is causing the issue .It should be sam Vince and Jessica
