Hi,
I would like to create a table from A to B, expand to 12 months with Start Date, Amount distributes evenly to 12 months, is it possible? thanks so much!
Table A
ID | Start Date | Amount |
A | Apr-24 | 12000 |
B | Aug-24 | 2400 |

Solved! Go to Solution.
@simonchung Hi Try it DAX
ExpandedTable =
VAR MonthsToExpand = 12
VAR T1 =
GENERATE(
'Table A',
VAR StartDate = 'Table A'[Start Date]
VAR AmountPerMonth = DIVIDE('Table A'[Amount], MonthsToExpand)
VAR Dates = ADDCOLUMNS(
GENERATESERIES(0, MonthsToExpand - 1, 1),
"MonthDate", EDATE(StartDate, [Value])
)
RETURN
SELECTCOLUMNS(
Dates,
"ID_Expanded", 'Table A'[ID],
"Month", FORMAT([MonthDate], "MMM-yy"),
"Amount1", AmountPerMonth
)
)
RETURN
SUMMARIZE( T1,[ID_Expanded],[Month],[Amount1])
