Posted on by Kobenix 12

Hello,

 

I am trying to build invoices utilizing a excel file and ROW A shows the billing ID and then theres several rows with the description of different pay criteria.

 

i am trying to make a loop to count the number of rows until the next billing id change in the excel document but having trouble understanding how to do that. 

 

I am utilizing desktop automate for this.

 

anyone have any idea?

    You need to take for loop and Variable

     

    you logic will be like

     

    for each   row in rows 

                CurrentBillingID = row[billingID]

                if(CurrentBillingID  equals PrevBillingID)

                   .......

                Else

                   ......  you encountered new BillingID

      PrevBillingID  =    CurrentBillingID
