Or do you always want 1 in case you have 1 and anything else in case you have only one record?

If so, my original query would be modified as

row_number() over (partition by PrimaryKey order by case when ChildTableField = 1 when -100000000000 else ChildTableField end) as RowNum

to make sure 1 comes first.

>So, on top of the SQL syntax I have presently, I would like to add the necessary code so I would filter any record from a duplicate primary key at the child table level and only keep the record from the child table having ChildTableField=1. So, in such circumstances, when I would have two records from the child table in the query result, I would like to obtain this:

>1                    1                  0

>5                    8                  1
>8                    6                  2

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
