@Jyo27 , You can not create an index column based on selected values. You have create

 

Use new Rank measure

rank = rank(dense, allselected(Table[Date]), orderby(Table[Date]) )

 

I have used Table[Date], as there timestamp and assumed you want order by that

 

or

 

rank = rank(dense, allselected(Date[Date]), orderby(Date[Date]) )
