- Add a custom column with a List of the Reporting Periods
- Expand that column to new rows.

Hello KervBruce,
you only need to add two lines of code:let Source = YourProjectTable, ColumnMonth = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Month", each YourDatesTable), OpenColumnMonth = Table.ExpandTableColumn(ColumnMonth, "Month", {"Month"}, {"Month"}) in OpenColumnMonthBest regards from Germany
