using 'values' in stats shows values merged

Hello Experts,

 

I was wondering if you can help me figure out how do I show the merged values in a field as 'unmerged' when use 'values' in stats command

beriwalnishant_0-1700457913149.png

 

(DETAILS_SVC_ERROR) and (FARE/PRCNG/AVL-MULT. RSNS) are different values .... coming as merged as an example, its merging all values in one when used "Values" OR "List" how to unmerge same

If I use 'mvexpand' it then expands to single count even if the values are same

 

Thanks in advance

Nishant

Well, this is how it's supposed to work. list() or values() gives you a multivalued field with a list of values.

If you need something else, you need to do something else.

But then I dont get the individual Totals if I do that along with the message.

Perhaps it would be better for you to show what it is that you do want?

You are correct, mvexpand of a values() or list() field will duplicate the event. If you want to count by ErrorCode separately, include ErrorCode in your by clause of the stats command.
