WorkFlow - Page Break For multiple Output

chandr45

Hi Team,

 

I created this workflow for a client of mine. The client accepted my output now they have come back to me to generate bulk in one go. Keeping in my mind, I created this for 1 document. Is there any way to put a column or a line in the output to separate the output after each documents are processed.

 

Appreciate your help.

 

P.S - I am new to alteryx and love it. I don't have much of programming knowledge.

 

Best,

Hi @chandr45, welcome to Alteryx! Are you basically trying to write to the Spain.csv file from two different data streams?

Hi JoBen,

 

Thank you for your response.

 

Basically, I am converting PDF input into CSV then inputting that CSV to format into excel. Now, I have a 10 to 15 PDF need to format it, with the current workflow it will format for all. I need to do a page break after each client. For e.g

 

Client A

---------

Client B

-------

Client C

 

with current workflow it is flowing - 

 

Client A

Client B

Client C

 

Thank you for your help.

Okay. I think this may help then. I'm not exactly sure without seeing the data at the final output, but I tried to mirror your data. Here is what I came up with. Does this help? I've attached my workflow in case you want to see it more in depth.

Hi JoBen,

 

I did try but didn't get any success. I am attaching the details for your review.

 

Please accept my apologies for putting you on spot.

Happy to help :) Do you mind uploading your input csv file as well?

Hi JoBen,

 

Please find the csv, this csv and workflow used it for initially. I would need a way out to put a page break on line 30. 

 

Please note, this is not a CSV file, this is a just converted PDF into CSV.

 

Thank you and appreciate it.

I'm not quite sure. I think that you could create a dummy text input with the "-------" and then union it to your datastream before the datastream writes to the csv file. It might look something like this.
