Hi @Sekhar,

let me understand, you can correlate events using the id field or there some other corrrelation rule?

if you can use id to correlate events, you could try something like this:

(index=emp source=empsource " offer letters") OR (index=manager source=manager source " relieving letters")
| stats 
   earliest(_time) AS earliest
   latest(_time) AS latest
   values(branch) AS branch
   values(managerid) AS managerid
   values(empname) AS empname 
   BY id
| eval diff =latest-earliest,
| eval earliest=strftime(earliest,"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"), latest=strftime(latest,"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")

Ciao.

Giuseppe
