Grouping in the Data Manager

Hi,


I was trying to group data from a collumn in the 'Add Field' tool and using an if statement and inside some or's. somehow the expression is not valid, but can't find the error. I applied it inside the app, and it works, so the syntax is ok, but not in the 'Add Field' tool.

Can you help me?

Thanks

Hi Dudley,

The expression's syntax for your field seems fine but it did not work for me when I tried locally, it does not like the ORs, then I tried a different approach, the WildMatch() function allows us to replace the ORs with a simple if-condition, like this:

if( (WildMatch(Area__C, 'Marketing', 'Finance', '*nge*')),'WildMatch', 'Y')

It works
