Hi Anonymous
I can reproduce your problem
To slove this problem, change the code as below
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("bZBLDsAgCETv4tpEoLXKWYwLe/9D9JMQCLIjPIYZGCOtlBMXLATIb9mlnFkYKSPPDmG8605hpleND3jBZeC2rSlsnvXAiTUZ+3mxjmMgBuvQfAGrSu7tfeAhxWd98PeYDw==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Name = _t, submitted = _t, submitted_to_sponsor_date = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{"submitted", type date}), MaxDate = Record.Field(Table.Max(Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each [submitted] <> null and [submitted] <> ""), "submitted"),"submitted"), MinDate = Record.Field(Table.Min(Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each [submitted_to_sponsor_date] <> null and [submitted_to_sponsor_date] <> ""), "submitted_to_sponsor_date"),"submitted"), DaysElapsed = Number.From(MaxDate-MinDate), DatesList = List.Dates(MinDate, DaysElapsed+1,Duration.From(1)), RawDatesTable = Table.FromList(DatesList, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), {"Date"}, null, ExtraValues.Error), ChangedType1 = Table.TransformColumnTypes(RawDatesTable,{{"Date", type date}}), InsertedDay = Table.AddColumn(ChangedType1, "Day", each Date.Day([Date]), type number), InsertedMonth = Table.AddColumn(InsertedDay, "Month", each Date.Month([Date]), type number), InsertedYear = Table.AddColumn(InsertedMonth, "Year", each Date.Year([Date]), type number) in InsertedYearBest Regards

Hi Anonymous ,
In Power Query, filter the column with the nulls by clicking on the arrow at the top of the column. I got that from KenPuls book.
If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos are nice too.

I think that would work, but I need all the rows in the 'proposal' table for other purposes. I could copy the proposal table and then filter it and then run the query to create the Calendar table, but that seems like it would just clutter up the data model. I'd prefer to do it with the code using the unaltered proposal table as the source to keep things simple. It seems like it must be possible; I just don't know where to start with the code.

Can you share sample data or PBIX file? I am not able to Recreate the issue. It is working even with null/blank values in columns.
Also, to confirm which step is failing, please go through Applied Steps in Query Settings from top. You will know which step is failing.
