    ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date From", type date}, {"Date To", type date}}),
    Ad_Dates = Table.AddColumn(ChangedType, "Dates", each List.Dates([Date From], Duration.TotalDays([Date To] - [Date From]) +1, #duration(1,0,0,0)), type list),

Hi, 

Option 1 - Power Query- Add Column-Custom Column use the formula below

 

=Date.AddDays([Date], 13)

 

Option 2 - create a column in data panel and use the DAX formula below. If it necessary use the relevant table and column names from your data

 

Date to=
SWITCH(
    WEEKDAY('tablename'[Date from] + 1, 1),7, 'tablename'[Date from]  +13,  
        'tablename'[Date from]  +13
)
This option is conditional you can change the formula depending your weekday ect. In your example you need 13 days in any condition.
