Row Count value assigned to Previous Row
The below table has 2 columns,
| Event | Target |
| C | 0 |
| C | 0 |
| C | 3 |
| R | 0 |
| R | 0 |
| R | 0 |
| C | 0 |
| C | 2 |
| R | 0 |
| R | 0 |
My requirement is Target Column.
Target:
The count of the R value should assign to the previous row where the first R is come appear.
In this example, R will start from the 4th row up to the 6th row. The total Count is 3.
The value 3 should assign to the 3rd row ( previous cell where the first R appears)
Same as the 9th and 10th rows having R, the count is 2. That should assign to the 8th cell.
Thank you.

Hi sivasrao ,
Firstly, I think you need to add an index column in Power Query Editor.
Then you can create a calculated column by below code to achieve your goal.
Target = VAR _Step1 = ADDCOLUMNS ( 'Table', "Column1", CALCULATE ( MIN ( 'Table'[Index] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Index] >= EARLIER ( 'Table'[Index] ) && 'Table'[Event] = "R" ) ) ) VAR _Step2 = ADDCOLUMNS ( _Step1, "Column2", MAXX ( FILTER ( _Step1, [Event] <> "R" && [Index] <= EARLIER ( [Index] ) ), [Column1] ) ) VAR _Step3 = ADDCOLUMNS ( _Step2, "Column3", VAR _MAXR = MAXX ( FILTER ( _Step2, [Column2] = EARLIER ( [Column2] ) ), [Index] ) RETURN IF ( [Index] = [Column1] - 1, _MAXR - [Column2] + 1, 0 ) ) RETURN SUMX ( FILTER ( _Step3, [Index] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Index] ) ), [Column3] )Result is as below.
