Use these steps to access the Query Properties page:

Select Reporting Tools, Query, Query Manager.

Create a new query or search for an existing one.

Click the Properties link on any page of the Query Manager component except the Run page.

The Query Properties page appears.

add new expression
write DISTINCT
then there’s option to include field in that expression from the records addded in ps query,
select field and save
then from expression list click on, use as fields option and make sure that this expression is the first field in ps query

so it’ll be like

Select DISTINCT , 2ns field,3rd field etc
