How to reconcile two different data sets using reference data

Hi all,

 

Hope everyone is well and keeping safe. 

 

I am trying to compare two data sets using a reference sheet. I am trying to create a workflow that takes the account # and account names from the reference sheet and find account# from data1 & account names from data2. The second part is to reconcile the amounts between data1 & data2 and show us the line items which are not matching between data1 and 2 Note: Dataset 2 has the amount broken into two or more line items and data1 has the consolidated amounts. 

 

I will really appreciate any help here, thank you in advance.
