Hi ,

Having 2 files, file 1 contains count and Actual and file 2 contains from and to and estimated 
expecting result as below which should pick based on the count from table 2, if actual is less than estimated it should be highlighted.

Ex:count:54(line item 3 in file 1 ) actual is 14 and 54 is falling in file 2 from 46-55 and estimated for that is 16. so actual is less then estimated that is 16. so 14 should be higlited

Ex2:52(line item 4 in file 1 ) actual is 18 and 52 is falling in file 2 from 46-55 and estimated for that is 16. so actual is greated then estimated i.e 16. so 16 should not be higlited

 

Thanks for the help in advance

There are a few options here. For example you can use the Generate Rows tool against the records in file 2 to create a row for each count and then process against that. Or you could use multi row logic to determine which row to check against.

Attaching a sample workflow for your case.  Hope it helps.

Hi,

 

I used an Append tool to do the matching between File 1 and File 2.  Depending on how many records you have in the 2 input files, this may not be ideal, as the Append would drastically increase the record count for a step.  The Table tool also contains a Column Rule formula that will highlight in yellow the records where Actual is less than Estimated.
