Hello Community -

 

Please help me with the below scenario.

 

I would like to get character(letters) removed at the end of a string. If i use Data cleansing tool, it removed the letters in between the string as well.

 

Input                        Output

2102CX746OT       2102CX746

2163BD5120A        2163BD5120

 

Thnx

Hey @Sriram_ts03 

 

Here is my solution. 

I have used regex to exclude any letters occurring at the end of the string. Hope this solves your issue.
