Dynamize my data transformation (missing fields)

Hi, I'm relatively new to Alteryx, and I was working on a workflow for bulk reading of payslips from PDFs.

I am using the Computer Vision PDF to Text tools with an Image Template, as all the documents to be read are identical.

Once I have defined the areas to capture in the template, the problem I am encountering is that, although the different PDF payrolls are identical, in some Alteryx reads data from a table with three columns, others with 4.
Although I have made the flow that works for the total set of data of the last year, if I only select some of the PDF of the inputs, the flow gives me an error due to missing fields, since not all the workers have the same concepts in the payroll.

When we read this year's data I may have new concepts that I did not have last year, so I'll get the same error.

I have been reading in the community about the Multi-field formula, but I am not sure if I can dynamize my data transformation with this tool.

 

Many thanks,

Jordi

Gracias Flávia, no me di cuenta que estaba en la comunidad en español, ya que siempre había realizado consultas en la de inglés.
