I have created a table that I'm using to group data but I need to be able to order it correctly in visulizations and so want to add an index/order column but I can't work out where or how to add another column into the formula used to create the table.
What I want is a column with 1 - 24 following the order they can been seen in in the table below

Hi @AllisonB
Please try this:
Unique Callers Band Table =
VAR _Table1 = SUMMARIZE(ADDCOLUMNS(GENERATESERIES(1,20,1),"Times Called",FORMAT([Value],"")),[Times Called])
VAR _Table2 = {"21-50"}
VAR _Table3 = {"51-100"}
VAR _Table4 = {"101-200"}
VAR _Table5 = {"201+"}
VAR _UnionTable = ADDCOLUMNS(UNION(_Table1,_Table2,_Table3,_Table4,_Table5),"_NUM",
VAR _String = IF(CONTAINSSTRING([Times Called],"-"),"-","+")
VAR _Num = SEARCH(_String,[Times Called],1,BLANK())
RETURN
VALUE(IFERROR(MID([Times Called],1,_Num-1),[Times Called])))
RETURN
SELECTCOLUMNS(_UnionTable,[Times Called],"Sort1",RANKX(_UnionTable,[_NUM],,ASC))
The result is as follow:

@AllisonB here it is:
Table =
VAR __Table1 = SELECTCOLUMNS ( ADDCOLUMNS ( GENERATESERIES ( 1, 20, 1 ), "Times Called", FORMAT ( [Value], "" ) ), "Index", [Value], "Times Called", [Times Called] )
VAR __Table2 = ROW ( "Index", 21, "Times Called", "21-50" )
VAR __Table3 = ROW ( "Index", 51, "Times Called", "51-100" )
VAR __Table4 = ROW ( "Index", 101, "Times Called", "101-200" )
VAR __Table5 = ROW ( "Index", 201, "Times Called", "201+" )
RETURN
UNION (
__Table1,
__Table2,
__Table3,
__Table4,
__Table5
)
