Posted on by rahul78610

I have a two tables in my solution , Table Employee which is like a employee master to keep the records of all employees and second table is taskTable which will be used to enter details of new task done by an employee , now I want to check this list from taskTable and want to compare the employee names with the Employee table which has all employees name in it and whoever is missing from the list of Table Employee , i want to send an email reminder to those ..
If I try to list rows first for taskTable and then list rows for Employee table it is not giving the proper output instead it is checking for each value from taskTable to every other value in Employee table and bcoz of that it is returning unexpected results ,
can anyone help please?

Hi rahul78610

You can Utilize the List rows action, and mention this fields :

In the Select columns field, you mention the shema name of columns that you want export.

And then, you will navigate to your Dynamics 365 and navigate the advanced search

You will search all employees and in the filter you add a related table (Tasks) and Guid (Tasks table) does not contain data.

Then you will click on Download Fetch XML query

You will add this Query in your Power automate action

Hope that's helpful for you

Hi rahul78610,

Based on your description, "second table is taskTable which will be used to enter details of new task done by an employee"

The employee and taskTable have 1:N relationship, there is one employee lookup column in taskTable, Right?

What you want is a list of employees who do not have any related tasks, Right?

Filter in the flow:

Next Steps:
