    I assuem you assign start date and end date. Then you can create a calculated table with DAX. Please refer to my sample below:

     

    MonthTable = 
var FullCalendar = ADDCOLUMNS(CALENDAR("2016/1/1","2017/12/31"),"Month Number",MONTH([Date]),"Year",YEAR([Date]),"Year-Month",LEFT(FORMAT([Date],"yyyyMMdd"),6),"Month Name",FORMAT(MONTH([Date]),"MMM"),"Year-MonthName",YEAR([Date]) & " " & FORMAT(MONTH([Date]),"MMM"))
return 
SUMMARIZE(FullCalendar,[Month Number],[Year],[Year-Month],[Year-MonthName])

     

    Regards,

Hi pierre415

 

If you have your date table already setup, in the Query Editor you could create a new Custom Column which would have the following syntax if your Month Column is called "Month" and your year column is called "Year"

 

[Month] & " " & [Year]
