Testing the existence and absence of values

I have two tables - the first lists a series of attributes and values against equipment

Image1

And the second lists the expected attributes that should be listed against each equipment type

Image2

I need a way of telling which are present, but more importantly which are not. So in this example

Equipment 5 is complete

Equipment 10 is missing Sum

Equipment 15 is missing Count

 

Ultimately I need to get a score

Sample 100% exists

Sum 0% exists

Count 50% exists

 

The bit i'm really struggling with is the absence of things since the equipment table is huge and the requirements differ for each equipmenttype

 

Thanks for your help

Stepping way from things always helps an idea to pop into your mind..

 

Think this does it

  1. It starts off with a sampler and statisticscalculator. these work out how many of each Equipment Types I have
  2. This is FeatureMerged with the table of required attribute names to work out how many of each attribute there should be in my equipment table
  3. A StatisticsCalculator works out how many there actually are
  4. The two are featuremerged together where equipmenttype and attributename match
  5. An attributemanager updated any unmatched with a count 0 since it is not present
  6. An expressionevaluator calculates the difference to give me a % present
