Hi @yodha , 

I am not sure your detailed requirement, did you want to create a date list from today to feature? If so, you could try below M code

let
    Source = List.Dates(DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()), 100, #duration(1,0,0,0)),
    #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error)
in
    #"Converted to Table"

If not, please correct me and inform your expected output.

 

Best Regards,

If you are using M code so use the below :

Date.AddMonths(#date(2020, 1, 1), 12)

You can also create a calendar dimension using below Dax Table:

Calendar Dimension= Calendar ( Date(  2020,1,1), Date (2020,12,31))

So it will calendar table from 1st  Jan to 31st Dec 2020
