Loading data from folder and column didn't appear

Hi,

I need help to load data from folder with three files where one has a different column and this column didn't appear in the final report.

 

I have a folder [C:\Report] and subfolders [Joe, Mike, Paul]:

In each subfolder I have a Excel file as a report.

file_in_each_folder.png

 

In 2 files (Joe and Mike) I have just two columns (Product/Sales) and the other file (Paul) I have three columns (Product/Sales/Cost).

I imported the folder and combined the Excel files:

The final report is generated

But, without the column COST.

I need to make appear the column COST.

 

The column is in Transform File:

But, didn't appear in the report final.

 

Thanks for any help.

@MRBranco - That may be tricky. It's probably because the file that had that extra column is not the file that you used for your sample file. Problem may be that if you use it as your sample file, all of your other files will error when loading.
