I have 2 tables which have a number of similar field names. I am aware that renaming/removing the similar field names can remove synthetic keys but the expected output requires that I keep the fields. I have been toying around with QUALIFY but there are just so many similar fields that I am not sure if my intuition to rename all of the fields are correct. My hope is that there is another option that I have overlooked for the data modeling that can help remove the synthetic keys/table.
How would you approach this? Below is an example of the data that I am working with.
Table 1 | |||||||
Company | First Name | Last Name | EmployeeStatus | Pay | City | State | Country |
McDonalds | Joe | Smith | Permanent | Hourly | New York | NY | USA |
Burger King | Amy | Doe | Permanent | Hourly | Chicago | IL | USA |
In & Out | Tim | Moe | Permanent | Salary | Las Vegas | NV | USA |
Shake Shack | Nancy | Drew | Permanent | Salary | Miami | FL | USA |
Table 2 | |||||||
Company | First Name | Last Name | EmployeeStatus | City | State | Country | |
Chick-Fil-A | Steve | Doll | Temp | Dallas | TX | USA | |
Popeyes | Mary | Stevens | Temp | Seattle | WA | USA | |
Pizza Hut | Mickey | Mouse | Temp | San Diego | CA | USA |
Expected Output | |||||||
Company | First Name | Last Name | EmployeeStatus | Pay | City | State | Country |
McDonalds | Joe | Smith | Permanent | Hourly | New York | NY | USA |
Burger King | Amy | Doe | Permanent | Hourly | Chicago | IL | USA |
In & Out | Tim | Moe | Permanent | Salary | Las Vegas | NV | USA |
Shake Shack | Nancy | Drew | Permanent | Salary | Miami | FL | USA |
Chick-Fil-A | Steve | Doll | Temp | Dallas | TX | USA | |
Popeyes | Mary | Stevens | Temp | Seattle | WA | USA | |

how about using concatenate
how about using concatenate
It took a little while to figure out how to structure CONCATENATE but that was exactly what I needed.
Thanks!
