What is the Multi-Row Formula tool used for? - ANSWER-
Utilize row data as part of the formula creation and is useful for
parsing complex data, and creating running totals, averages,
percentages, and other mathematical calculations
What are the steps to configure the Multi-Row Formula tool? -
ANSWER-1.) Choose to Update Existing Field or Create New
Field. If creating a new field, enter a name, and select the Type
and Size.
2.)Use Num Rows to set the row variables that display as in the
expression editor. When set to 1, these variables display
Row - 1: The row before the active row.
Row + 0: This is the Active Row. The active row is where the
result goes into.
Row + 1: The row after the active row.

3.)When the Active row is the first row, you need to specify the
Values for Rows that don't exist.
Null: Null values are applied to nonexistent rows.
0 or Empty: The values are set to 0 or left empty (default).
Set to Values of Closest Valid Row: The values of the closest
valid row are set to the nonexistent rows.
4.)Group by (Optional): Either select fields individually or use
the All or Clear buttons.
5.)Build the expression that will update the chosen field. Visit
Expression Editor for details.
What is the Append Fields Tool and what is it used for? -
ANSWER-Use Append Fields to append the fields of one small
input (Source) to every record of another larger input (Target).
The result is a Cartesian join. In a Cartesian join, every row
from one table is joined to every row of another table. For
example, if table A has 100 rows, and table B has 1,000 rows,
the Cartesian join of these two tables results in 100,000 rows

What are some of the capabilities of the Append Fields Tool? -
ANSWER-Select, Deselect, and Reorder Columns, Modify Data
Type and Size, and Rename a Column or Add a Description
What happens if you generate too many records? - ANSWER-
Warn/Error on Too Many Records Being Generated: Since the
Append Fields tool performs a Cartesian join, you can
unintentionally produce an excessive amount of records. You
can configure warnings or errors to be reported to ensure that
too many records are not produced.
-Allow All Appends: All records will be appended to all records
with no error or warning.
-Warn on appends of more than 16 Records: If more than 16
records are in the Source file (S input) a warning is reported and
the workflow continues processing.
-Error on appends of more than 16 Records: If more than 16
records are in the Source file (S input) an error is reported and
the workflow stops processing.

What are the two options to performing a Join? - ANSWER-1.)
Join by Record Position: Select this option when the two tables
to be joined have the same field structure, and the data will be
joined by its position within the two tables.
2.) Join by Specific Field: Select this option when the two tables
have one or more fields in common (like an ID) and the data
will be joined together. You can choose to Join based on
multiple fields. Each Join should be a separate row in the grid.
What do you need to do if you need multiple join fields? -
ANSWER--Select the dropdown to choose an additional join
field, per input.
-To delete a join field, select a number on the left-hand side and
select the Delete button.
What is the difference between the Find/Replace input anchors?
- ANSWER--F input anchor: This input is the initial input table
("F" for "Find"). This is the table that is updated in the tool's
results.
-R input anchor: This input is the lookup table ("R" for
"Replace"). This is the table that contains data used to replace
data in (or append data to) the initial input.
