instead of numeric, i want to mention the month name, can anyone help me how to get to month name here?
If you have no date column, it might be easier to:
= Table.AddColumn(PriorStepOrTableName, "Month Name", each Date.MonthName(#date(1, [Month Number], 1)), type date)
--Nate
True.
I should have added this as option 1a). 🙂

Hi @Ramyaajithkumar ,
There's a couple of ways to do this. In order of preference:
1) If your data has an actual date field in it, then you would create a new custom column a follows:
Date.MonthName([Date])
2) If your data does not have a date field in it, then you would need to create a conditional column, something like this:
if [Month number] = 1 then "January"
else if [Month number] = 2 then "February"
else if [Month number] = 3 then "March"
...
