Extracting single Column value from different column

Posted on by VincentGiovanni

Hello Great community

I've three SP Lists called 'UAM', 'North WH' & 'South WH'.
The columns in 'UAM' Are as following:
idkort (single Line of text)
Produkt (Single Line of Text),
Artikelnummer (Single line of text)
Qty (Single Line of Text)
Site (Choice Column with values 'Norra' & 'Södra')
Unit (Single Line of text)

The 'UAM' List is already populated with 4600 rows, the 'Unit' column is empty on all rows. I want to create a flow that if the 'Site' Column is equal to 'Södra', retrieve the data in Unit column (LookUp Column) FROM my 'South WH' by matching the 'Produkt' String from my 'UAM' in my 'South WH' stringQrkod column (Single Line of text) SP List. and If the Site value is 'Norra' do the same procedure but in my 'North WH' SP List. Also populate the earlier 4600 rows in my 'UAM' based on the condition i provided.

Im no expert so i would appreciate a detailed explanation if possible, i tried to do it but recieved an error saying "Actions in this flow may result in an infinite trigger loop. Please ensure you add appropriate conditional checks to prevent this flow from triggering itself"

I'll attach some images from my SP List in hope that it helps you understand.

Hi @VincentGiovanni

Before I get too far in my help, can you validate this for me.

1. do you need to run it once to catch up? since the rows aren't filled in?
2. Do you need a flow that triggers every time a new item is added, so that it does this mapping automatically?

As these would be 2 flows, now 1, I just want to validate.

If I have helped you, I would really appreciate if you please Mark my answer as Resolved/Answered, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

Cheers

Hello @FLMike

1. I need it to run everytime a new item is created but I'ld like for it to fill in the rows that already exist once.
I'm thinking having two separate Flows for each Site (North & South WH List)

@VincentGiovanni

personally I wouldn't create 2 flows but thats up to you.
But you will need to create a Manual Flow to trigger to update the existing. But you need to do this during a maintenance window where no one is creating more data or you risk missing something.

If you have something started please share, writing complete flows for everyone takes up too much time.
