    Hi Anonymous,

    It seems like a multiple column sort recruitment, maybe you can take a look at following thread about using isonorafter to sort multiple columns:

    Hi Anonymous 

    I think you have to do it with Power Query like this:

    // Table
    let
        Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("pdM9DoAgDAXguzBrLC0qjEY8AWzGG3j/2Z9oECbiSxgK6fdoQlhX5VhTF5cQVaO+i2n2YkSrrcmb7noi/ZbXcbsXjvt6l3acRQx4xIhHWDzCwRFC+BTmE1G8tSEfWDTnHc8NnDJLIBUgjSOZNYDtATsAdgSsBaz7b5kAe37+7QA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [A = _t, B = _t, C = _t, D = _t, E = _t, KEY = _t]),
        #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"A", type text}, {"B", type text}, {"C", type text}, {"D", type text}, {"E", type text}, {"KEY", type text}}),
        #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"A"}, {{"Gruppieren", each _, type table [A=text, B=text, C=text, D=text, E=text, KEY=text]}}),
        #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "Index", each Table.AddIndexColumn([Gruppieren], "Index", 1, 1)),
        #"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Added Custom",{"Index"}),
        #"Expanded {0}" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Removed Other Columns", "Index", {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "KEY", "Index"}, {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "KEY", "Index.1"})
    in
        #"Expanded {0}"

    Hi Anonymous 

    Try a column

    Index = 
    RANKX (
    FILTER('Table','Table'[A] = EARLIER('Table'[A])),
    'Table'[KEY]
    )
  • Hi,

    Basis what do you want to create the Index column - the first 4 characters of the Key column?  Clarify.

    Hi all, thanks for reply!!

     

    I`ll try to clarify. This figure might help. 6121/TEST-LINE-1 is the "mother" of "6121/ST-TESTPIPE" with "children-ID`S.

     

    It`s all about to get Test-Line-1 in first row and ST-TestPipe in second row with children ids etc..

     

    If you have a solution that would be great. Thanks.
