Hello everybody, my name is David and I am currently an accounting student at Cal State Fullerton. To any accounting or finance professionals out there, how has Alteryx served as a tool in your profession? Alteryx has shown the potential to solve any complex data problems. I aspire to become more proficient in using the software.

Hello!

I am an accounting student starting to learn how to use Alteryx Designer, and after practicing with different kinds of challenges and exercises, I still don't understand the differences between the different tools in the Join category. I have read the explanations for each one several times but in practice I get confused on which one is better for the situation. 

How do you know when to use Append, Join, or Union? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Looking forward to hearing your experiences!

Hi all,

 I am learning how to use Alteryx for a college course. I really enjoy how you can organize the tools used in the workflow and see it all very clearly. For example, you can add annotations and group tools used into containers.
