when i try to merge tow table i get this error:
"select the column of the same type to continue"
so what is the problem?
@waleed111 try to have the same data type for both mergeing column. First change the data type to Date/Time in both the tables and then try to attempt to merge tables.
Hi @waleed111
Due to the type of two columns are different(Data and Date/Time)
And I think you need keep the Date/Time column, so you can add a new column with Date Only.
Then you can do merge between two same type columns.

Hi, @waleed111 , data type of columns used as key are inconsistent; so an error occurs. I think you'd split "Date-Time of manufacturing" column into Date column and Time column,
