Qlik Sense - Create ID column

Hi all,

I have a table like this:

Field1
apple
16
16
orange
12
10
pineapple
34
23

 

How can I add ID column in the same table so it becomes like table below using load script?

Field1ID
apple1
161
161
orange2
122
102
pineapple3
343
233

 

Thank you.

Hello,

Just a little edit :

Div( RecNo()-1,3 )+1 as ID,

otherwise the indexing starts from 0.

 or you can also use :

Ceil(RowNo()/3) as id,

Here I divided by 3 because you needed to apply the same index to 3 rows at a time. 

let me know if it works.

If you know its every third row then you could try div()

 

Div( RecNo()-1,3 ) as ID
