How to Group By (Empty Values)

Hi,

i cant solve my problem, maybe you can. It looks easy, but i have no idea.

So lets say, i have 2 tables:

1. Data:

2. ExtraData:

Now i want to create a table that looks like that:

I tried to use Masterelemts (for exampe) if(Group='Car',Brand), but then i get empty values like that:

What is the right way to solve this? With the data load editor? I tried but couldn't

You can use generic load for this that will unpivot your group and you can have brand as your cell value

If you must do it on front-end, i would do this:

=aggr( only({<group = {'car'} >} brand), id)

=aggr( only({<group = {'bike'} >} brand), id)

I chose only() (assuming there is only 1 bike or car per id.  You could choose concat() or maxstring() or whatever else you want to show in the case if there is > 1 record per id.

Hi,

Maybe something like this.

Sample Dataset

Load * Inline [
ID,GROUP,BRAND
1,Car,RG
1,Bike,SETH
1,Airplane,SSRYN
2,Car,SHRTHB
2,Bike,SRHS
2,Airplane,SBF
3,Car,SNFBDF
3,Bike,NSFGBNSG
3,Airplane,SFHNSR
4,Car,NFGBNS
4,Bike,FGBSFGNB
4,Airplane,SFHNSFHN
5,Car,SFNSR
5,Bike,NSFHNSFH
5,Airplane,SNFHN ];

Output :

AshutoshBhumkar_0-1631029555271.png

Expressions : 

Car - Only({<GROUP = {"Car"}>}BRAND)

Bike - Only({<GROUP = {"Bike"}>}BRAND)

Airplane - Only({<GROUP = {"Airplane"}>}BRAND)

 

Thanks,

Ashutosh

thank you very much for the quick help, i only want to do some of the values, so the second is good and i only have only 1 value per id, so this works for me perfectly!
