Number client rows in table

Hello everyone,

 

I am trying to put an identifier per client. (like 1,2,3,4,5)

Over time a client can have multiple healthcare registrations

I am using the shanckey chart to visulize the patern(i am using the 1,2,3,4,5 from the clientcount column)

Now i am putting the numbers for every client manualy by hand

 

I want ot automate this process

Below 4 colums that is use.

Clientcount is the column i manually proces by hand in excel.

i am sorting the clientnumber and the begindate and then the proces starts to fill the clientcount column per client.

 

Is there a way to automatically fill the count number per client?

Try this script or see the attached.

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("bY7BDcMwDAN38TsCSDm141kC779GqTpVU7TPI46UzrOwOR5lKw7DYQ4eAgyjL5jbxyEyltMNe8D4cjTyjgXN1Pl1esY67NdoOtwVV95u+fjroBoidqwCGMB0olpx/fPa6cu57UTMlvOCukCjcz4B", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Clientnumber = _t, #"Begin date" = _t, #"End date" = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Clientnumber", Int64.Type}, {"Begin date", type date}, {"End date", type date}}),
    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"Clientnumber"}, {{"tbl", each  
        let 
            tbl = _,
            #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort( tbl, {{ "End date", Order.Ascending } } ),
            #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Sorted Rows", "Clientcount", 1, 1)

Hi @Anonymous , 

You could refer to @Mariusz 's suggestions, and you also could refer to my sample for details.

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("bY7BDcMwDAN38TsCSDm141kC779GqTpVU7TPI46UzrOwOR5lKw7DYQ4eAgyjL5jbxyEyltMNe8D4cjTyjgXN1Pl1esY67NdoOtwVV95u+fjroBoidqwCGMB0olpx/fPa6cu57UTMlvOCukCjcz4B", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Clientnumber = _t, #"Begin date" = _t, #"End date" = _t]),
    #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(Source,"-",".",Replacer.ReplaceText,{"Begin date", "End date"}),
    #"Changed Type with Locale" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Replaced Value", {{"Begin date", type date}, {"End date", type date}}, "sq-AL"),
    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type with Locale", {"Clientnumber"}, {{"all", each _, type table [Clientnumber=text, Begin date=date, End date=date]}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "client count", each Table.AddIndexColumn([all], "client count", 1,1)),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom",{"all"}),
    #"Expanded client count" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Removed Columns", "client count", {"Begin date", "End date", "client count"}, {"Begin date", "End date", "client count.1"})
in
    #"Expanded client count"
