How to join two tables and keep the duplicates (one to many relationship)

D

Hi,

I'm trying to join two tables using the FeatureMerger and I have enabled the Process Duplicate Supplier since my Suplier table has got more than one entry for each of the Requestor entries I'm trying to match. However, I'd like it to keep all duplications from the Supplier table so that the total Merged includes duplicate rows from the Supplier. Is there a way to achieve this?

Thanks!

Hi @de8a88,

You got the right approach but most likely need to enter a list to store the suppliers:

Or if possible exchange the Requestors and Suppliers, so each Requestor will have one Supplier.
