@Anonymous Please try this...

 

Consolidated Rank = SWITCH(TRUE()
                          ,RankTest[Rank1] <> BLANK(),RankTest[Rank1] 
                          ,RankTest[Rank2] <> BLANK(),RankTest[Rank2]

Thanks for your reply, I'm getting "Expression.Error: The name 'SWITCH' wasn't recognized.  Make sure it's spelled correctly."

Swith will work on design side but i want it in Power query as a new column.

@Anonymous Add New Column in Data pane using "New Column" option not in "Power Query Editor"

@PattemManohar Agree but i want to do it in Power Query because i need to apply some aggregation post to this logic.

If i  do it in Data Pane i cant able to see that data in "Power Query Editor"
