Multi- row Formula - alphabetical order

Hello All,

 

I have a question regarding the Multi-row Formula tool.

Before the Multi-row Formula, the data are in the required order but when I use the Multi-row Formula tool, the tool order them into alphabetical order.

 

Can you please help me how could I get back the required order after using the Multi-row Formula tool?

 

Thanks you in advance!

Hi @bakaidora 

 

Could you share your workflow, or at least the print of it and the print of the configuration of the Multi-row formula tool? The Multi-row Formula does not change the order of the rows with the default configuration, i would like to see why this is happening for you.

 

But if this is happening, i would try to find a way to use the record Id tool before and order by the record Id after the Multi-row.

Are you using the group by option of the multi row tool, right? It is really necessary to use it in your case? If not, just uncheck it.

Yes I need to use the group by function:

Hi @bakaidora 

 

Ok, looking at your config, i think that you can adapt the attached workflow to reorder it using tile tool before + order by after the multi row.
