Hi community
I'm trying to make a custom grouping/indexing based on various criterias.
I have a table containing data for people and their helicopter flights/departures. A Scheduled flight can be cancelled and the reservation status will then be "Cancelled" and a new scheduled time will be created for that person --> a new row is then created in the table.

Hi @micjensen ,
Here are the steps you can follow:
1. In Power Query -- Add Column – Index Column – From 1.
2. Create calculated column.
Flag1 =
var _table=
SUMMARIZE(
'Table','Table'[Index],"min",MINX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),
'Table'[Index]=EARLIER('Table'[Index])&&'Table'[Reservation Status]<>"Cancelled"),[Index])+1)
var _column=
SELECTCOLUMNS(_table,"min",[min])
var _if1=
IF(
'Table'[Index] in _column,1,0)
var _if2=
IF(
'Table'[Index]=
MINX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[DaWinci ID]=EARLIER('Table'[DaWinci ID])),[Index]),1,0)
var _if3=
IF(
_if1=_if2,_if1,_if1+_if2)
return
_if3Flag2 =
SUMX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Index]<=EARLIER('Table'[Index])),[Flag1])
3. Result:
