@waleed111 ,

 

You can use like

Date = CALENDARAUTO()

or Date = CALENDARAUTO(3)//this make sure the calendar start in March and end at feb

i know that CALENDARAUTO function return table, but my question is are there a way to get a date column using it.

@waleed111 

I don't think we can do that for a column. CALENDARAUTO() will generate the dates automatically as a table.

Do you want to create continuous dates?

maybe you can try create an index column in PQ first, then use the starting date +index column

Column = DATE(2020,1,1)+tbl[Index]
