Index column in power query based on date sorting

Hello Anonymous
this code should do the trick
let Source = #table ( {"ID","Sub ID","Date"}, { {"ABC","ABC1","2020-01-01"}, {"ABC","ABC2","2020-01-02"}, {"ABC","ABC3","2020-01-03"}, {"ABC","ABC4","2020-01-04"}, {"DEF","DEF1","2020-01-02"}, {"DEF","DEF2","2020-01-05"}, {"DEF","DEF3","2020-01-04"}, {"DEF","DEF4","2020-01-03"} } ), ToDate = Table.TransformColumns ( Source, { { "Date", each Date.From(_,"en-US"), type date } } ), Group = Table.Group(ToDate, {"ID"}, {{"AllRows", (tableint) => let sort = Table.Sort(tableint,{"Date", Order.Ascending}), AddIndex = Table.AddIndexColumn(sort,"Index",1) in AddIndex}}), Expand = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Group, "AllRows", {"Sub ID", "Date", "Index"}, {"Sub ID", "Date", "Index"}) in ExpandCopy paste this code to the advanced editor in a new blank query to see how the solution works. If this solution fits your need, copy and past a part of it and implement it in your query
