Hi Mynda, I am sending a file, so you can see where I made a mistake. I tried to merge the 'parts number' column in 'Parts' with the 'Total approved parts amount'. 

 

Here is what I did:

1. Made a connection only query called "Parts" for Parts number

2. Made a connection only query called " UDIS_JS_append_filter" containing parts number and Total approved parts amount

3. Right click on the Parts to merge

4. Selected "UDIS_JS_append_filter" 

5. Selected parts on both query

6. Selected Left outer merge

7. Clicked okay

8. I clicked "expand" to open the table 

But the result was null

Can you explain about the difference between "expand " and "aggregate"??

File could not be attached because it was big.

But when I manually filter the there should be result and not null

Do you have any ideas to how I can go about it in another way?

Hi Junko,
Make sure that the key columns from both tables have the same data format, if one is text and other is general or numeric, there will be no match.
