Date Table and how to make it dynamic

[atin]

Hi All 

I have been using this DATE table for some time and been using it for a Sales Table daily refresh.

How do I get the end date to be a dynamic one and not have future dates show in the table 

I know there is a DateTime.FixedLocalNow() formula that exists and I dont know where to insert this line in my current date table 

Many thanks

See Date Table details below: 

= (StartDate as date, EndDate as date, FYStartMonth as number) as table =>

  let

    DayCount = Duration.Days(Duration.From(EndDate - StartDate)) +1 ,

    Source = List.Dates(StartDate,DayCount,#duration(1,0,0,0)),

    TableFromList = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing()),  

    ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(TableFromList,{{"Column1", type date}}),

    RenamedColumns = Table.RenameColumns(ChangedType,{{"Column1", "Date"}}),

in

    AddFY

Hi @atin ,

You could try like this:

= Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type" , each Date.From([end date]) <= Date.From(DateTime.FixedLocalNow()))

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("XZDLDcUwCAR78TkSBn+pxUr/bQS/KNr1u+EdgxjWSioqltXTtcvy1ve1kgGYmAEUgCrUUJG3Y1ID6MekDjC/cucDuYtmgEnL7hjEiUTlIPGRDGeUll+gbKiDCLmHB/f8QDy2I3UY8pDqAAUgvhOoAC4VeTsUlUg/FQvIYMN9X9P/c8WCCuCHXwHgYzUexcfqxyw+Vih+5H4A", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"start date" = _t, #"end date" = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"start date", type date}, {"end date", type date}}),
    Custom1 = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type" , each Date.From([end date]) <= Date.From(DateTime.FixedLocalNow()))
in
    Custom1

Hi @atin ,

use DAX to create the date table.
