9 years agoDate Table, Powerquery to Future Set Date
Evening,
I've follow the guides to setup a Date Table using powerquery and it works perfectly.
let
Source = #date(2010, 1, 1),
Custom1 = List.Dates(Source, Number.From(DateTime.LocalNow())- Number.From(Source) ,#duration(1,0,0,0)),
#"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Custom1, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),I was wondering how to change it from simply creating the DateTable "DateTime.LocalNow()" until today, but until say for example the 1/1/2018 instead.
Thoughts on the powerquery code?
Just replace DateTime.LocalNow() by #date(2018,1,1).
Alternative code:
let Source = Table.FromColumns({{Number.From(#date(2017,1,1))..Number.From(#date(2018,1,1))}}), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column1", type date}}) in #"Changed Type"
