thank you

Solved! Go to Solution.
HI @sheshraja ,
Add an index column in Power Query.
Then Create a Calulated Column
Resultant Column =
var prev= CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[A]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index] = EARLIER('Table'[Index])-1))
RETURN
if ('Table'[A] - prev = 1 , 1 , 0)

Hi @sheshraja ,
You may enter into Query Editor via "Transform data" tab under Home ribbon, add an Index column under "Add column" ribbon, click "Close & Apply" button.
Then you may create calculated column like DAX below.
Result =
var _PreRow= CALCULATE(MAX(Table1[A]), FILTER(Table1, Table1[Index]< EARLIER(Table1[Index])))
return
IF(Table1[A] =_PreRow, 0, Table1[A] )

How do calculate ZERO in for both true and false in your formula.
IF(A2=A3,0,0)
Can you explain what calculation you are after?

Hi
thank you for the reply the furmula works on excel, I would like to do the same on power BI as custom column.
for each repating secquence of No. 1, I would like to see just one on the result column as shown below.
| A | B (RESULT COLUMN) | |
| 0 | 0 | IF(A3>A2,1,IF(A3=A4,0,0)) |
| 1 | 1 | IF(A4>A3,1,IF(A4=A5,0,0)) |
| 1 | 0 | IF(A5>A4,1,IF(A5=A6,0,0)) |
| 1 | 0 | IF(A6>A5,1,IF(A6=A7,0,0)) |
| 0 | 0 | IF(A7>A6,1,IF(A7=A8,0,0)) |

Mmmm. I suggest you do it in Power Query
let me know if it will work for you.
I am sure you will have other columns as well in your dataset, share a realistic sample.

Hi @sheshraja ,
In Power Query you can add index column and based on that index column use lookup function to move between rows.
Example formula:
Result =
IF (
Sheet1[A1]
> LOOKUPVALUE ( Sheet1[A1], Sheet1[Index], Sheet1[Index] - 1 ),
1,
IF (
Sheet1[A1]
= LOOKUPVALUE ( Sheet1[A1], Sheet1[Index], Sheet1[Index] + 1 ),
0,
0
)
)
Cheers,
Nemanja
