Convert date ranges e.g. 2021/22, 2022/23 etc

[NatWinckler]

I receive budget and actual amounts with assigned date ranges e.g. 2021/22, 2022/23 etc in their own "Financial Year" column, I am very new to Power Query and BI and would love to know how to these assigned dates to an actual fiscal year range. My financial year runs April to March

Hi @NatWinckler ,

Please new a blank query in Power Query Editor:

let
    startDate = #date(2020, 1, 1),                                      //start date. update the date if you need it
    endDate = Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()),                           //Today date
    numMonths = Duration.Days(endDate - startDate),                     //get number of months
    dateList = List.Dates(startDate, numMonths, #duration(1,0,0,0)),    //generate a list of dates
    generateCalendar = List.Transform(
                            dateList, 
                            each 
                            {                                           
                                    _,                                  //date
                                    Date.Day(_),                        //get day
                                    Date.Month(_),                      //get month
                                    Date.Year(_),                       //get year
                                    Date.DayOfWeekName(_),              //get day of week name

                                        if Date.Month(_)-3 < 1 
                                        then Date.Month(_)+9 
                                        else Date.Month(_)-3
                                    ), 
                                    (                                   //get financial year
                                        if _ > #date(Date.Year(_),3,31) 
                                        then Date.ToText(_,"yyyy")&"/"&Date.ToText(Date.AddYears(_,1),"yy") 
                                        else Date.ToText(Date.AddYears(_,-1),"yyyy")&"/"&Date.ToText(_,"yy")
                                    )
                                }
                        ),
    output = Table.FromRows(
                    generateCalendar, 
                    {                                                   //column name: same order as above
