Data base and dictionary

Hello guys,

Please help, I have a dictionary with the same information for two countries, see below:

QueueNameDepartmentCountry
CSISalesFrance
CSISalesGermany

 

Then I have my database, I have separate files for each country:

SalesFrance.xlsx
SalesGermany.xlsx

The information in the files came like this:

For the SalesFrance.xlsx

QueueNameCalls
CSI2

 

For the SalesGermany.xlsx

QueueNameCalls
CSI4

 

So when I do the cross information on a table and I filter the country France, and QueueName: CSI
the table still show me the information for both countries, example:

QueueNameCalls
CSI6

 

What can I do to differentiate the codes? because i already have the country filter, but doesnt work.

Please help! Thank you

You can add a new field in the LOAD script, such as "Country" or "Source" where you store that information from the file name, if there are no better options.

Pseudocode should be:

FOR EACH vFile in FileList(C:\Folder\Files\*.xls)

LOAD
QueueName
Calls
FileName() as Source // '$(vFile)' could be use here as well
FROM vFile;

NEXT
