Calendarauto

Hi there, Is there any other codes that i can use instead of calendarauto.

I usually go for calendarauto to make a date table to connect with my data to create progress or plan by week report.

The problem is this code collects all the dates from my data even though it's not correct date like 1939 which was put in accident in database. i don't want to correct database inccorrect date every single time.. 

 

please let me know there is any other code but same function.!

 

thanks

CL

you can define the range for a date table like so.

Dates = CALENDAR ( DATE ( 2018, 1, 1 ), DATE ( 2020, 12, 31 ) )

You can start calendar like

calendar(Min(Table[Date]), Today())

calendar(date(1990,1,1), Today())

calendar(date(1990,1,1), date(2025,12,31))
