How to compare the columns values against another column

Hi Guys,

I am having a query which would result as below,

Screenshot 2022-03-01 at 7.39.44 PM.png

The above shows count by xyz for the user selected timerange.  I would like to add one more column to this table as LessThanThreshold - which would tell the number of times the count in each day was below the corresponding Threshold value.

To be precise for a row, if the value of 01-Mar-22 < Threshold then increment the new column LessThanThreshold by 1, if 28-Feb-22<Threshold, then increment LessThanThreshold by 1. 

Using Foreach I am not sure to compare between columns itself. Could someone please help me out here.

Thanks

Hey @sangs8788 

just piggybacked on @ITWhisperer solution 

 | makeresults | eval xyz = 571273637828, 01-mar-22=26, 28-feb-22=13, Threshold =3, TotalCount=39
|append [|makeresults | eval xyz = 571273633123, 01-mar-22=1352, 28-feb-22=1702, Threshold =332, TotalCount=3054]
|append [|makeresults | eval xyz = 571273633267, 01-mar-22=0, 28-feb-22=40, Threshold =3, TotalCount=40]
|foreach *-*-22 [eval <<MATCHSEG1>><<MATCHSEG2>>-22_Threshold = if('<<FIELD>>' < Threshold,"LessThanThreshold_by_1","OK")]

Thanks for you response. This would work too. But I want more of a count rather than OK or NOT. Appreciate your effort. Thanks again

ITWhisperer Is there a possible way to consider only the latest date column value alone and compare it with threshold field?

Thanks. It worked. Didnt know that I can use Threshold field inside foreach without being included in foreach condition.
