This one was more challenging for me... The cross tab/transcribe method wasn't immediately intuitive for me so I spent a lot of time seeking other solutions. Good way to learn about multi row formulas, and I happened to stumble across some interesting information on batch macros and multi field functions! Wonder what a solution with an iterative macro would look like...

An utterly terrible method for doing this, but I didn't feel like thinking through any other routes. Sometimes being direct doesn't hurt anything.

This was much harder than I expected and had to look at some spoliers to get some hits but it worked and I learned somethings.

Hi guys,

 

This is my solutions for Alteryx new starters. I just started using Alteryx 2 weeks ago.

I was struggled with why my results did not match against the output. I followed the same process as the solutions. However, I still did not reach the same results against the output.

As result of investigating, Left Only and Right Only items, I Identified that 4 Field Names at the screenshot below needed to be renamed.

If you struggled the same way, please double check the screenshot below.

 

Cheers,

 

Tate

Attached is my entry to the Week #3 challenge. I have to admit, this was a little tough for me.

Similar to @SeanAdams, I was perturbed about the calculation of the average when there weren't enough months, so I used a Formula tool to create a field to account for that.

Also, s/o to @patrick_digan for his handy multi -field multi -row multi -column Formula tool! Sure came in handy here.

I just received my license last week and I spent some time over the weekend on these challenges.  I completed 11 challenges Friday and Saturday night (hey, my wife is out of town OK!).

 

Here is my solution to this problem.
