Hi All
I'm struggling to find a formula to generate the parent account column for the account No in chart of accounts. The format is as below and the last column (Parent_Account) is what is need the system to generate. Sample file is attached with the expected values for the parent account. Here's the link to Ondedrive

Has anyone got a suggestion to get the parent account? The human eye can detect the pattern here, but can Power Query be programmed?
It's a hierachy

Ok I'll try to explain..
The accounts are nested in Begin-End hierarchy
100 Begin
200 Begin
300 Begin
400 Post ACC
End
End
End
The task is to find the account number - (column 1) from the begin entry 1 level above. so in above example for the black post account number it is the red begin account number = 300, for the red it is the green begin account = 200
