1010data Support

You can open a new TRS window and perform various actions on a table or query. You can then link those results into the exiting table or worksheet in the current TRS window.

1. In the New operation panel, click Link.
   The 1010data Insights Platform displays the object browser in the Link tables panel.

   

2. Optionally, in the Suffix field at the bottom of the table browser, enter a suffix.
   While not required, this field is highly recommended as it differentiates the column names from the two tables you are linking.

   The suffix may be any alphanumeric value and may contain underscores. In the resultant table, the suffix will be appended to the column names of the foreign table, which you are linking in, and is useful when linking tables that contain similarly-named columns. For example, if you are viewing your Sales Item Detail table and want to link in your Product Master table, you might append a suffix of _PM to the columns from Product Master in the resultant table.

   In this example, a column named class in the Product Master table is named class_PM in the resultant table. Any reference to these columns (e.g., when creating a computed column) would use the column names with the suffix.

3. Click Link to worksheet.
   The Insights Platform displays the object browser in the Link to worksheet window.

   Note: If you have multiple Trillion-Row Spreadsheets windows open, the Insights Platform instead displays options to link to a table, a new worksheet, or an existing worksheet.
4. If the Insights Platform displayed link options, click New worksheet.
   The Insights Platform displays the object browser in the Link to worksheet window.

   

5. Browse to and select the foreign table on which you want to create a new worksheet.
   The Insights Platform displays the New Operation panel in the Analyze tab on the left of the window and the table on the right.

   

6. After performing the desired analysis, return to the TRS window that contains the base table you want to link the worksheet into.
   The Insights Platform displays the link column options for the foreign worksheet in the Link tables panel.

   

7. In the After linking drop-down list, select one of the following options:

   Option	Description
   Keep all rows	Select this option to link in all rows from the foreign table. This is useful if you want to look at additional information about one subset of rows in a table or worksheet but still maintain the original level of detail for the other rows.
   Include matching rows	Retains only those rows in the base table that correspond to the selection in the foreign table.
   Exclude matching rows	Retains only those rows in the base table that do not have a match in the foreign table.
   Expand to include all matching rows	Expands the base table by copying the row that matches the column in the foreign table and linking on both those rows.

8. Optionally, to view the column name instead of the column label, select the Show with column name option.
9. From the first section, which correspond to and lists the current table or worksheet title, drag the column or columns you want to link on into the blank section directly to the right.
   This is the column from the table you currently have open.

Next, select a column in the foreign worksheet you are linking in that corresponds to the one you just selected in the table you currently have open.

10. From the last section, which correspond to and lists the foreign worksheet title, drag the column or columns you want to match to those specified in the previous step to the blank section directly to the left.
11. To define specific columns to include or exclude, complete the following:
    1. Click the More Options switch.
       The Insights Platform displays options to include/exclude columns.
    2. Do one of the following:

       Drag columns
       Click Exclude All
       Click Exclude None

12. Click the Submit operation () icon.
    The Insights Platform links the foreign worksheet into the current base table or worksheet and displays the columns from the two tables combined.
