Hi,
This M code works
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlXSUYpMTSwCUgamuoYGukYGhmZAjqGBUqwOirQhsrQpuqwRsqwRuqyBoa6BGUjWHMgxwStroRQbCwA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Interval = _t, Period = _t, #"Interval Start" = _t, #"Repeat in contract term" = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Interval", Int64.Type}, {"Period", type text}, {"Interval Start", type date}, {"Repeat in contract term", Int64.Type}}), #"Duplicated Column" = Table.DuplicateColumn(#"Changed Type", "Repeat in contract term", "Repeat in contract term - Copy"), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Duplicated Column", "Custom", each {1..[Repeat in contract term]}), #"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom"), #"Subtracted from Column" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Expanded Custom", {{"Custom", each _ - 1, type number}}), #"Inserted Multiplication" = Table.AddColumn(#"Subtracted from Column", "Multiplication", each [Interval] * [Custom], type number), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Multiplication", "Custom.1", each Date.AddYears([Interval Start],[Multiplication])), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom1",{"Repeat in contract term", "Multiplication"}), #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Removed Columns",{{"Repeat in contract term - Copy", "Repeat in contract term"}}), #"Added Prefix" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Renamed Columns", {{"Custom", each "Date " & Text.From(_, "en-IN"), type text}}), #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Added Prefix","Date 0","Interval Start Date",Replacer.ReplaceText,{"Custom"}), #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Replaced Value", {{"Custom", type text}}, "en-IN"), List.Distinct(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Replaced Value", {{"Custom", type text}}, "en-IN")[Custom]), "Custom", "Custom.1") in #"Pivoted Column"Hope this helps.

4 years agoTaking first row as example, why Due Date1 should be 4/10/2021 if they are spaced at 5 years interval? It should be 5/10/2021 and Due Date 2 should be 5/10/2026 not 3/10/2026. You should not multiply 365 by 5 to arrive at 1825 days. You need to simply add 5 years to dates to arrive at final result unless you have reasons to add 1825 days not 5 years.
Let me know the logic, then I can provide appropriate DAX formula.
