Hi bleow,
Did you mean to use the current date and the range to generate a table with the start date and end date?
If that is the case, you can take a look at the following formula:
let offset = 4, Source = List.Transform( List.Numbers( Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow()) - offset + 1, offset ), each Text.From(_) & "," & Text.From(#date(_, 1, 1)) & "," & Text.From(#date(_, 12, 31)) ), #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList( Source, Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(","), null, null, ExtraValues.Error ), #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns( #"Converted to Table", { { "Column1", "Year" }, { "Column2", "Start" }, { "Column3", "End" } } ), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes( #"Renamed Columns", { { "Year", Int64.Type }, { "Start", type date }, { "End", type date } } ) in #"Changed Type"Regards,

If that is the case, you can take a look at the following formula:
let
offset = 4,
Source =
List.Transform(
List.Numbers(
Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())
- offset
+ 1,
offset

each
Text.From(_)
& ","
& Text.From(#date(_, 1, 1))
& ","
& Text.From(#date(_, 12, 31))
),
#"Converted to Table" =
Table.FromList(
Source,
Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(","),
null,
null,
ExtraValues.Error
),
#"Renamed Columns" =
Table.RenameColumns(
