Hi @rahmatn,

I suppose that you're using DB-Connect to query data.

usually DB-Connect is used to extract data (using an SQL Query) and put them in an index.

When you have data in an index, you can run a search like the one I hinted.

Anyway, if the problem is how to use the search, you could run something like this:

your_query
| search NOT [ | inputlookup account.csv | fields Name ]
| table Name AccopuntNo Amount

put attention that the field name "Name" is the same in query output and lookup, otherwise you have to modify your search:

your_query
| rename query_name AS Name 
| search NOT [ | inputlookup account.csv | fields Name ]
| table query_name AccopuntNo Amount

Ciao

Hi Guiseppe, 

Thanks for your response, but it not solve my case

Actually the transaction data coming from SQL and the lookup is in the splunk
so i have to run the SQL query first and then using lookup command as subsearch

i cannot use "NOT" before the subsearch, or may be i
