Hi,
I'm having trouble trying to create a new column in my table.
I have several person ID's in the same table, but I only want to count it once for each FY (financial year).
I need a formula that results in a '1' per row. I hope the example below with my desired column explains what I need if anybody can please help.
Person ID FY (Desired Column)
1 2024 1
1 2024 0
2 2024 1
2 2024 0
2 2024 0
1 2023 1
1 2023 0
1 2023 0
2 2023 1
2 2023 0
2 2023 0
3 2023 1
3 2023 0
Appreciate any help!!

Hi @EB09
First you need to add the index column in the Power Query editor as shown below.
Then You can create a measure as follows.
result =
VAR _min =
CALCULATE (
MIN ( 'Table'[Index] ),
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Person ID], 'Table'[FY] )
)
RETURN
IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Index] ) = _min, 1, 0 )
Is this the result you expect?

Sorry I'm a new user I'm not too sure, is there anyway this can be done from what I've said? Do I need to structure in a different way?
@EB09
is there any other columns in this table that would identify the order or the sort. What differentiates each line when they are the same ID and the FY?
