Fiscal Year / Calendar Year
Hi,
I need help creating a new column in Power Query where I create a Calendar Year.
Our fiscal year begins in July.
Id like a column named "Calendar Year"
Thanks!
You can create a custom column with this expression.
= if Date.Month([Merged])>6 then Date.Year([Merged]) + 1 else Date.Year([Merged])

Hi, ppm1
I ran into an issue with this.
The calendar year should be "2022" not 2024.
Thank you for your help!

ppm1 was able to fix with "-1" instead of "+1" thank you!

Hi amandabus21 ,
Create a blank query, go to the advanced editor, delete everything in the editor, and then paste the code below:
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 Date.MonthName(_), //get month name ( //get financial period if Date.Month(_)-6 < 1 then Date.Month(_)+6 else Date.Month(_)-6 ), ( //get financial year if _ > #date(Date.Year(_),6,30) then "FY"&Date.ToText(_,"yyyy")&"-"&Date.ToText(Date.AddYears(_,1),"yy") else "FY"&Date.ToText(Date.AddYears(_,-1),"yyyy")&"-"&Date.ToText(_,"yy") ) } ), output = Table.FromRows( generateCalendar, { //column name: same order as above "Date", "Day", "Month", "Year", "Day Of Week", "Month Name", "Financial Period", "Financial Year" } ) in outputRegards
