Calculate number of days between two days and put in respective months

Hi everyone,

 

I'm having difficulties calculating the number of days between two dates because I need the days to be counted for each seperate month. For example if the two dates are in the same month then it's easy.

 

Table.AddColumn(Source, "Subtraction", each Duration.Days([EndDate] - [StartDate])+1, Int64.Type)

 

But when the dates are in different months i need to calculate the days that fall in each month seperately. 

 

Please see below a part of the two date columns

@madlfc87 , Try using below m code

 

let
Source = ... , // Your data source
AddDateList = Table.AddColumn(Source, "DateList", each List.Dates([StartDate], Duration.Days([EndDate] - [StartDate]) + 1, #duration(1, 0, 0, 0))),
ExpandDateList = Table.ExpandListColumn(AddDateList, "DateList"),
AddYearMonth = Table.AddColumn(ExpandDateList, "YearMonth", each Date.Year([DateList]) * 100 + Date.Month([DateList]), Int64.Type),
GroupByYearMonth = Table.Group(AddYearMonth, {"YearMonth"}, {{"DaysInMonth", each Table.RowCount(_), Int64.Type}})
in
GroupByYearMonth
