    Please help I'm trying to consolidating multiple acquisition (excel or CSV) input files - for e.g:

    Please see attached files: Inv_jan13.xls and Inv_Feb13.xls (invoice files) into 1 consolidation file , lets called : "consolidation 1"

    Once "consolidation 1" created, I like to deleted the unwanted string column fields and only wanted to keep 7 column headers as indicated below

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Account Number Bill Period Start Bill Period End Bi Item Name Excl GS $ Incl GS $
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Additionally once these "consolidation 1" created I would like to identify the trending of distinct character "Bi Item" appears against each months as debit or credit (i.e: -$123.566) so I could identify and monitor distinct character "Bi Item" fluctuation through out the financial year or whether the any credit amount was issue.

    Please advise how to attached excel or word document

    Hi,

    Not sure if I understood but here is my answer anyway.


    You can import both the files individually and and then use a CAT node to Concatenate these two into one file. After that you can use a filter node to emit the Attributes/Fields as you mentioned.
    Once that is done, you can use an Agg Ex node to see the Distinct Month's BI Item trending.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks
