Process Inputfile one by one

Hi All - 

 

I'm looking for only piece advice how to process input file one by one using 6 common mapping.. Here is the situation.

 

I have created one workflow works fine to generate one output.

 

Mapping

4 mapping files are used from one workbook  which has 4 different sheet ( No consolidate kind of static file.)

2 mapping files are consolidated on real time basis using two batch macro.

 

Output

while saving it I use input file name to save it.. so number of output file depends on number of input file

 

Input file

I want to perform same action to all other 19 files. only condition is don't want to reload mapping file again and again.

 

this is the flow.

@Mukeshy12390 
Maybe we can use another batch macro?

Or the brutal way by making your process a standard macro?

Thanks Qiu for the quick reply.

 

I'm trying to understand..if I create batch macro for circled area in red (all mapping and action) . 

 

it will run for all 20 files... I don't want to run consolidation batch macro 1 and 2 again and again.

 

can you show the structure how it would be like image or something.

Maybe something like this?

If you could provide some dummy data and flow, we can take a look.

after several hours of thinking I'm able to do it. my problem was not to run more than 1 time "Batch macro 1 and 2 for consolidation"

 

so what I did  -

-------------

1) Create one new workflow.

2)Added 3 container  i) Consolidatoin 1 ii)Consolidation 2 iii) Create Report

3) control container using  radio option.

4) in process I run both consolidation one by one  and generated output use as input in "Action part ( while creating report)".

thanks Qiu for the support.. unfortunately I can't upload and file due to some restriction.

 

I would love to see if you can upload the solution by using any input file.. as I'm new to Alteryx trying to explore new stuff.
