2 years agoYou don't need to do that. The parameter values in Power Query have nothing to do with the actual partition boundaries in Incremental Refresh. Think of them as a way for you (the report developer) to only use the necessary subset of data for development work. Again - these values will be ignored/overwritten by the Power BI service.
Use a future date and then leave it be.

Based on the refresh rules you specified in Power BI. The service will also automatically merge partitions as needed when date boundaries are crossed (like when a new year starts).
