    You can easily do this in Power Query.

     

    Right click Original Table, select Reference , Remove the unwanted columns, select "Remove Duplicates", now you will have the column with unique values .

     

    You can use this table as Relationship / Bridge table as you needed.

     

    Thanks

Yes, you can do that way also, Both gives same result.

 

Click on the column you created, Go to Transform Tab -> Click Group by , it will create 2 columns , one is the unique value of your column and another one is based on your selection ( ex: count). You can delete the extra column and keep the custom column.

 

Thanks
