Fill up columns with conditions in power query

Hi all

I have below table. Now I wanna create a "Max rate" columns with below logic:

Fill up the Max rate of max distance for 1 shipment in column" Max rate"

Ex: Shipment B have 2 rates with max distance ( 12) : 1719 and 1741  => fill up 1741 into " Max rate" column

 

So, is there any way to do it with POWER QUERY?

 

Thanks in advance for your support!

@ngocnguyen , You have this video deal with category max - if that can help

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KaMj2DFpWg

 

In DAX you can a new column

new column =
var _1 = maxx(filter(Table, [shipment no] =earlier([shipment no])),[distance])
return
maxx(filter(Table, [shipment no] =earlier([shipment no]) && [distance] =_1),[Rate])
