Question about Summarization

Hello Good morning,

 

I have a question regarding a problem that I am trying to solve. My dataset is something like this:

 

ItemCategoryAttributeValue
10000Cat1Att1Blue
10000Cat1Att1Green
10000Cat1Att1Yellow
10000Cat1Att1Black
10000Cat1Att1Blue
10000Cat1Att1Blue
10001Cat2Att2Pipe
10001Cat2Att2Comma
10001Cat2Att2Colon
10001Cat2Att2Pipe
10001Cat2Att2Comma
10001Cat2Att3Monkey
10001Cat2Att3Cat
10001Cat2Att3Dog
10001Cat2Att3Monkey
10001Cat2Att3Monkey

 

I want to find all the cases where the Values are repeating. For example I would like to get an output like this one:

 

ItemCategoryAttributeValueCount
10000Cat1Att1Blue3
10001Cat2Att2Comma2
10001Cat2Att3Monkey3

 

I am only interested in counting the repeating values. Can anyone suggest how I can go about this?

I tried to do this but it did not help:

Summarize:

 

  • Item - Group By
  • Category - Group By
  • Attribute - Group By
  • Value - Count Distinct

Hi @thd-data-analyst I mocked up a workflow that should produce the output you describe. Let me know what you think?

Thank you @JosephSerpis. I was missing the Value -  Group By.
