Multi Condition Match Formula

I am trying to create a multi factor match on the below fields. I want to create a flag/report showing if all the following fields match (Invoice, Invoice Date, Supplier, and Pay Amt). if these fields match I would like to see them in a separate report. Below is a sample data table I created for reference. The row in bold below have these fields matched.

 

Any help would be highly appreciated!

Hi @mustufa2019,

 

An easy way to get this information is using a Unique tool and looking at the Duplicate anchor.

Hi @mustufa2019 ,

 

Attached is an example showing how to do it.

Take a look and let me know if this makes sense to you.

BEst,

@fmvizcaino There is one additional condition I am trying to create. I want to create a flag/report when fields Invoice, Invoice Date, and Gross Amt match but field Supplier is different. I ran the same workflow you showed and updated the settings but I think there needs to be an additional condition created to apply different "supplier" rule. See below screenshots:

In this, you can see even if the "supplier" field is same, it still shows up. But I want a condition that would spit a report of records with Invoice, Invoice Date, and Gross Amt matched but field Supplier different. Is this something you can help with?

Hi @mustufa2019 ,

 

I've inserted one more row in my example with a different supplier. Check if this separation makes sense to you 🙂

Let me know if you need further help.

Best,

@fmvizcainothanks for sharing this. One question, why do we need to have step 2 and 3 before we ran the additional condition of duplicates with different supplier (see screenshot 1)? Is there a way I can have this condition in a separate workflow?

 

I have multiple conditions I am trying to create, see screenshot 2. I used your workflow as a guide but wanted to see what the purpose of the first two steps are and if I can have separate workflows with my different conditions.
