Data transformation Question
I am working on a report where the data looks like below (sample data):
Services : JAS, GAF and YAG fall under the profit center "ABC" and HIG and OPD falls under "XYZ"
Date | Profit Center | Service |
---|---|---|
1/1/24 | ABC | |
1/1/24 | JAS | |
1/1/24 | GAF | |
1/1/24 | YAG | |
1/1/24 | XYZ | |
1/1/24 | HIG | |
1/1/24 | OPD |
I want my final output to look like below, there should be a profit center for each service in each row.
Date | Profit Center | Service |
---|---|---|
1/1/24 | ABC | XCS |
1/1/24 | ABC | JAS |
1/1/24 | ABC | GAF |
1/1/24 | ABC | YAG |
1/1/24 | XYZ | HIG |
1/1/24 | XYZ | OPD |
Can someone please guide me how can we do that in domo etl ? I know that window functions (lag,lead) aren't supported in Domo's mysql, so trying to find a solution with magic etl.
Thankyou

I think you want to fill down the
Profit Center
column, and once you've created a filled down Profit Center column, you could filter out the blankService
rows.Here's a good explanation from @MichelleH on filling down using Group-By and Coalesce in MagicETL:
I also like the Python implementation from @user01506 (except that Python in a MagicETL feels like putting on a lobster bib at a Denny's)

Do the services map to profit centers? For example, is XCS always in the ABC profit center? How many total services & profit centers are there? Are there any other fields that group profit centers together?
If I solved your problem, please select "yes" above

@SS1108 If the service centers always map to the same profit center you could use a mapping table that joins into the ETL or you can do a beastmode/formula tile like below
case
when 'service' in ('XCS', 'JAS', 'GAF', 'YAG') then 'ABC'
when 'service' in ('HIG','OPD') then 'XYZ'
end

@DavidChurchman the explanation from @MichelleH was really helpful. I was able to successfully map the data. Thank you so much
