Diff snap strange thing

Guys, a silly question, want to compare two data,

One is like email, full_name, title, licenses, uid.
One is like email, full_name, title.

Sorted by email.

When I check the modified output, found the user with same email, full_name and title, do you know why?

Thanks.

Hi,
I do have two tables and I am comparing them using Diff Snap.

Table A (New):
โ€œEMP IDโ€: โ€œ00001โ€
โ€œEMP Nameโ€: โ€œJackson, Michealโ€
โ€œPosition IDโ€: โ€œ00002โ€
โ€œManager EMP IDโ€: โ€œ1002080โ€
โ€œManager Positionโ€: โ€œ00217โ€
โ€œManager Nameโ€: โ€œABCโ€
โ€œManager Sup Orgโ€: โ€œXYZโ€

Table B (Original):
โ€œEMP IDโ€: โ€œ00001โ€
โ€œEMP Nameโ€: โ€œJackson, Michealโ€
โ€œPosition IDโ€: โ€œ00002โ€
โ€œManager EMP IDโ€: โ€œ1002080โ€
โ€œManager Positionโ€: โ€œ00217โ€
โ€œManager Nameโ€: โ€œABCโ€
โ€œManager Sup Orgโ€: โ€œXYZโ€

โ€œEMP IDโ€: โ€œ00001โ€
โ€œEMP Nameโ€: โ€œJackson, Michealโ€
โ€œPosition IDโ€: โ€œ00002โ€
โ€œManager EMP IDโ€: โ€œ1315186โ€
โ€œManager Positionโ€: โ€œ00591โ€
โ€œManager Nameโ€: โ€œDEF.โ€
โ€œManager Sup Orgโ€: โ€œLMNโ€

Since, Both the tables has employee ID with different Managers under same position. Can we do the comparison still?. If yes, can you please explain.

The reason is I am not seeing the second record from the Original table in the output of Diff Snap either as Modified or Insertion or deletion or unmodified. Any reason ?

Were you able to figure it out?

The diff snap expect your sort path to be unique but in your case your 2nd record in your sample have the same employee ID.
