Hi All,

I need to give number for each record of ACE_VALUE column
I have concatenated 3 columns and created AC_VALUE column and i want to see key number like below example in a newly created custom column in power query

ACE_VALUE	Key Number
123ABC22/3/24	1
123CDA3/5/2021	2
123ABC22/3/24	1
568CDA31/1/2007	3
123CDA3/5/2021	2

Please reply

Hi @Anonymous 
You can duplicate the table and remove duplicates :

Add an index column :

And merge the tables:

The table that merged can be unchecked from loading to the model

pbix is attached
