Hello All,
I have 2 columns that I need to merge into one. Columns are different attributes of a single feature class.
If Address 1 has populated field, then they are accepted. If Address 1 is null, then Address 2 is checked and information from that column will be copied to Address 1. If both columns are populated, Address 1 is accepted.
Any ideas of how I would do that? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

An attributecreator with a conditional value can be used here. If Address1 has a value do nothing, otherwise make Address1 equal Address2

Hi @fariyafarhad
You can use an AttributeCreator and create a new attribute with the name 'Address1'. This new attribute will overwrite the old one. As value, you choose the option 'Conditional Value' which opens a new window in which you can enter a Test condition and an Output value.
TEST: If Address1 has a value, OUTPUT: Address1
ELSE OUTPUT: Address2
If something is not clear, I will be happy to help!
Good luck!

Another option is to use the NullAttributeMapper, I find it slightly easier to read when reopening a workspace later on as you don't have to click through 2 dialogs to see what's going on:
Enter your username or e-mail address. We'll send you an e-mail with instructions to reset your password.
