Hi all,

 

I have the following data in my input dataset.

 

loan_id period DEFAULT_FLAG..

1234     144     0

1234     145     0

1234     146     0

1234     147     0

1234     148     1

1234     149     0

1234     150     1

1234     151     0

 

In this example, loan_id 1234 and one row for each period. I need only the records until the first time default_flag has value 1.

Following is the expected output:

 

loan_id period DEFAULT_FLAG..

1234     144     0

1234     145     0

1234     146     0

1234     147     0

1234     148     1

 

The data is sorted on loan_id and period.

 

Can anyone please help me achieve this.

 

Thanks
