Create Date Table based on Max and Min Order Date from the fact Table
- 4 years ago
On you fact table query, select your time period column and on the Transform tab choose Add Suffix under Format dropdown. Add the suffix of 01 and then convert that column to a Date type. After that, you can reference that column in the List.Min and List.Max steps of that query to get a Date table that dynamically expands as you add more data. If needed, you can wrap the List.Max with Date.EndOfMonth to get the end of the final month.
