Lost Information in translation

Hi,

I have this below error in my alteryx workflow after using the cleansing tool. Can you please help me to understand what this error is about and how I can resolve it.

Hi @Prajwal19,

With getting a small peek into your workflow, it looks like you may have the same issue as this post:

Takeaway from above link:  if you are changing a field type to numeric in the Select tool before the Data Cleanse tool, you may see this error.  Moving the Data Cleanse before changing the field type may prevent this error.
