Go through the article in the link, read about checksum and checksum Old in point no 6.

This will give you basic idea about the design.

I hope this will help you.

Hi @VIGNESH.M ,

I have one Q on below, the provided solution works perfect to flag any delta change,

i,e a new member added or parent node has been changed or description has been changed between two load files.

but is there any possibility ,where I can flag what is the kind of change has happened from any of the above three checks.

I mean that delta flagged member is a new addition, or parent changed or desc updated change.

Also I want to flag them by different colours.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Madhabika,

Now we are comparing Checksum vs Checksum old to find is there any delta?

If you want to find out, which attribute caused the delta?, then you have to copy all the 3 attributes to another column and compare it as shown below

Thanks,
