Compare Tables

Good afternoon Qlik Developers,

I have two tables with partially matching data. Table 1 is "all" data and Table 2 has "partial" data. The ideal output would be to return all non-repeated data as in the Output table below. Essentially the output is the difference between Table 1 and Table 2.

Please help me with ideas if possible, thank you! -Mack

Table 1

Table 2

Table2:

load * inline [

field2

G

B

A

I

];

Output:

load * inline [

field1

A

B

C

D

E

F

G

H

I

]

Where Not Exists (field2, field1);

A different solution could be

Table1:

load * inline [

field1

A

B

C

D

E

F

G

H

I

];


Table2:

load * inline [

field2

G

B

A

I

];

Map:

Mapping load field2, 'FOUND' Resident Table2;

Output:

NoConcatenate load * Resident Table1

where ApplyMap('Map', field1, 'MISSING') = 'MISSING';
