Add a new ToDate column using values in the FromDate columns next row

I have a table with product, cost & from_date column. 

I want to add a new column with a to_date. The to_date should be the day before the start of the next from_date intervall.

Is it possible to create a column like this?

Thanks

    Hi danols 

    Create a calculated column:

     

    ToDate =
VAR next_ =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( Table1[FromDate] ),
        Table1[FromDate] > EARLIER ( Table1[FromDate] ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Prod] )
    )
VAR res_ =
    IF ( ISBLANK ( next_ ), DATE ( 2099, 12, 31 ), next_ - 1 )
RETURN
    res_
