Hello,

 

I am trying to create a custom column with the below requirements:

2) Else return the next quarter 

 

This is an example of what I have now

Hi, @Brite ;

You add custom in powerbi query.

[date]-#duration(1,0,0,0)
= Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Start of Week", each Date.StartOfWeek([Custom])+#duration(1,0,0,0))
= Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Start of Week", "Quarter1", each Date.QuarterOfYear([Start of Week]), Int64.Type)
= Table.RemoveColumns(#"Inserted Quarter",{"Custom", "Start of Week"})

M lanuage:

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("fc1BCoAwDETRq0jWlTSTaL1G16X3v0atiCAkXWQRHsxvjcAnIwMbJZL7quzzpZ6miT7oGvLCSmT69lyKc7rI6SJnHE4ayzc5r+JnJTZYZAdLTJdLfQA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"W/E Company" = _t, num = _t, Quarter = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"W/E Company", type date}, {"num", Int64.Type}, {"Quarter", type text}}),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Changed Type",{{"W/E Company", "date"}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Renamed Columns", "Custom", each [date]-#duration(1,0,0,0)),
    #"Inserted Start of Week" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Start of Week", each Date.StartOfWeek([Custom])+#duration(1,0,0,0)),
    #"Inserted Quarter" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Start of Week", "Quarter1", each Date.QuarterOfYear([Start of Week]), Int64.Type),
    #"Removed Columns1" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Inserted Quarter",{"Custom", "Start of Week"})
in
    #"Removed Columns1"

The final show:
