Hello Everyone,
My data contains historical updates made to part numbers at a given location. I would like to filter using Power Query to only the most recent record for each location's part number. I have many values in GrpParent_Loc_KPN - I want to find the most recent Rebuild_DT.
I have a Rebuild_DT column which is a datetime field. I also have a GrpParent_Loc_KPN which is a concatenation of three fields. I would like to identify with a 1 or 0 whether or not the Rebuild_DT is the most recent for each GrpParent_Loc_KPN.

Hello @Matthew_Theis
this solution uses the same approach as the one from @Vera_33, but it's more compact
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjDUByIjAyNDJR2lxESlWB2ImBEWMbi6pCRMdUhixjCx5GSImBGSXpBYLAA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Rebuild_DT = _t, GrpParent_Loc_K = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Rebuild_DT", type date, "en-US"}}),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"GrpParent_Loc_K"}, {{"MaxDate", each List.Max([Rebuild_DT]), type date}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"
Copy paste this code to the advanced editor in a new blank query to see how the solution works.

Paste it in Advanced editor with a blank query, next time please provide some data in a format we can copy:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WCkpNKs3MSYl3CVHSUXIvKghILErNK4n3yU+O91aK1YlWMjDUByIjAyNDoILizNRcuKgRVlG42vScFEylyILGGIJG6NpjAQ==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t, Column2 = _t]),
#"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(Source, [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"Rebuild_DT", type datetime}, {"GrpParent_Loc_K", type text}}),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"GrpParent_Loc_K"}, {{"allrows", each _, type table}}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "Custom", each [a=Table.AddIndexColumn([allrows],"Index",0,1),
b=Table.AddColumn(a,"new",each if [Rebuild_DT]=List.Max(a[Rebuild_DT]) then 1 else 0)][b]),
#"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Added Custom",{"Custom"}),
#"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Removed Other Columns", "Custom", {"Rebuild_DT", "GrpParent_Loc_K", "Index", "new"}, {"Rebuild_DT", "GrpParent_Loc_K", "Index", "new"})
in
#"Expanded Custom"
