Creating Date table school year

Hello,

 

I would like to make a date table wher I have a column to select the school year. The output should be "13/14". I can create begin year and the eind year. Here is the example:

 

Date =
ADDCOLUMNS (
CALENDAR (DATE(2014;1;1); DATE(2025;12;31));
"DateAsInteger"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "YYYYMMDD" );
"Jaar"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "YYYY" );
"Maand"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "MM" );
"Jaar-Maand"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "YYYY/MM" );
"Jaar-Maand kort"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "YYYY/mmm" );
"Maand-kort"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "mmm" );
"Maand-Lang"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "mmmm" );
"Dagnummer"; WEEKDAY ( [Date] );
"Weekdag"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "dddd" );
"Weekdag-kort"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "ddd" );
"Kwartaal"; "Q" & FORMAT ( [Date]; "Q" );
"Jaar kwartaal"; FORMAT ( [Date]; "YYYY" ) & "-Q" & FORMAT ( [Date]; "Q" );
"Schooljaar Begin"; if(month([Date])<8;YEAR([date])-1 ;YEAR([Date]));
"Schooljaar Eind"; if(month([Date])<8;YEAR([date]) ;YEAR([Date])+1)
)
 
I would like to combine the output to for example "13/14". The year starts in August and ends in July the next year.
 
What is the best solution?
