jtomczyk Hi! The simplest way is to add a condition to your code, like this:
if [T6]<=Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) and [T6] <> null then 6 else
if [T5]<=Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) and [T5] <> null then 5 else
if [T4]<=Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) and [T4] <> null then 4 else
if [T3]<=Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) and [T3] <> null then 3 else
if [T2]<=Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) and [T2] <> null then 2 else 1Try it!

Hi jtomczyk
Another way, have a try
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjDUByIjAyNDJR1UDhwZmugbmMJEDQ30gQjMidUBajdC1o7MMbLQN7DENAtNuzGydmOCtivFxgIA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Date = _t, T1 = _t, T2 = _t, T3 = _t, T4 = _t, T5 = _t, T6 = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date", type date}, {"T2", type date}, {"T3", type text}, {"T4", type text}, {"T5", type date}, {"T6", type date}, {"T1", type date}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each 6 - List.PositionOf( List.Transform( {[T6],[T5],[T4],[T3],[T2],[T1]}, each try _ <= Date.From( DateTime.LocalNow()) otherwise false), true)) in #"Added Custom"
