Missing columns causing workflwo to stop

Hi all

I have a workflow that I run to list all staff leaving the Firm, which lists all assets (e.g. laptop or Macbook) assigned to them, and ultimately send them emails.

 

I am having a problem with 1 section where I have to list all ServiceNow tickets logged for each asset. Most weeks there are only 1 asset per departer (attached Test_Ticket 1.xlsx), occasionally there are 2 (or more) assets per departer (attached Test_Ticket 2.xlsx) so multiple ticket have to be logged.

I use a combination of "Transpose" and "Cross tab" tools to list both ticket numbers in the one field (see screenshot)

Is there a way in Alteryx to say if "Ticket # 2" column does not exist then carry on with the workflow using "Ticket # 1", but if "Ticket # 2" field does exist then run the formula to 'join' the 2 (or more) ticket numbers (below) and continue the workflow ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated/

Hello @StephenT ,

 

you can easily do that with a transpose and summarize tools:

Thanks.

After a tweak or 2 (to add the partyID) your solution solved my issue.

 

Greatly appreciate your quick response -  i will "accept as solution" and "like".
