    Hi Anonymous ,

    Please update the formula of calculated column [sousOF_] as below and check if that is what you want. You can find the details in the attachment.

    sousOF_ = 
CONCATENATEX (
    FILTER (
        VALUES ( Ds[ID] ),
        PATHCONTAINS ( [Lien], EARLIER ( [ID] ) )
            && VALUE ( [ID] ) >= VALUE ( EARLIER ( Ds[ID] ) )
    ),
    [ID]
)

    Best Regards

Hi  Anonymous ,

You can refer the following links to remove the duplicated values when using CONCATENATEX function:

CONCATENATEX is providing duplicated result even when using values() ,distinct() or related table()
Measures=
CONCATENATEX (
    VALUES ( '# test_DRIVER_DASHBOARD'[CATEGORY] ),
    '# test_DRIVER_DASHBOARD'[CATEGORY],
    ","
)

CONCATENATEX providing unique (distinct) values

If the above ones can't help you get the expected result, please provide some raw data in the table 'Ds' with Text format and the calculation logic of the calculated column [sousOF_]. It seems that you used PATHCONTAINS function there, is there any hierarchy level exist in the field? It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.
