Generating Missing Rows

Deano478

hHi Everyone,

 

i'm back again with another issue. Essentially my workflow is nearly done I just have one piece left to the puzzle.

 

I have a dataset which can be seen below and as you can see it's missing certain rows that should be a Monday.

 

For example you can see for Marcus you have 03/08/2023 up until 13/08/2023. He is missing the row for 07/08/2023.

I have no idea whether this particular job can be done in Alteryx but any assistance is greatly appreciated to get this done.

 

Cheers in advance

Hi @Deano478 

 

Yes, this is possible.

 

Step 1: Use the Summarize tool to get the Min date and Max date for each employee ID

 

Step 2: Use the Generate rows tool to achieve creating the rows for missing date

 

Step 3: Join the output with the Input

 

Many thanks

Note: If all the column values needs to be filled, use multi row formula to fill the null values based on your requirement.
