UPDATE / replace FIELD

ilanbaruch — Tue, 24 Nov 2015 15:02:43 GMT

Hi all,

I have 2 tables in my model,

the first one holds sales data (with [agent id]) and the second holds agents details.

in the sales table I want to omit value of [agent id] if the invoice canceled with null or zero_value so the sale amount will not be connected to agent.

is that possible?

Yes, you can accomplish this by adding a WHERE clause in your load script:

Sales:

LOAD

FROM Your_Source

WHERE Not IsNull(Sale_Amount) OR Sale_Amount <> 0;

Hope this helps.

Yes, that's possible.

You're talking about Sales information and agent details, but not about invoices and where they reside. You should merge invoice information into the Sales table, or create a mapping table that translates a sales ID into an invoice amount. That way you can filter out or reset Sales data that didn't lead to a non-zero invoice amount.
