List.dates between dates in same column

Hi phauschke 

You can try this:

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WcnRyVtJRMjQwMABSBoZ6QGRkYGSkFKsDlzNFlTNGkjNC6DNCyEVERkHMxDQSImWEYWIsAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Dept." = _t, #"Hrs rate" = _t, #"Valid from" = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Dept.", type text}, {"Hrs rate", Int64.Type}, {"Valid from", type date}}),
    #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Changed Type", "Index", 1, 1, Int64.Type),
    #"Added Index1" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Added Index", "Index.1", 0, 1, Int64.Type),
    #"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Added Index1", {"Dept.", "Index"}, #"Added Index1", {"Dept.", "Index.1"}, "Added Index1", JoinKind.LeftOuter),
    #"Expanded Added Index1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Added Index1", {"Valid from"}, {"Added Index1.Valid from"}),
    #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Expanded Added Index1",{{"Dept.", Order.Ascending}, {"Valid from", Order.Ascending}}),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Sorted Rows",{{"Added Index1.Valid from", "Valid to"}}),
    #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Renamed Columns",null,Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()),Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Valid to"}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Replaced Value", "Valid date", each List.Dates([Valid from], Duration.Days([Valid to] - [Valid from]), #duration(1,0,0,0))),
    #"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Added Custom",{"Dept.", "Hrs rate", "Valid date"}),
    #"Expanded Valid date" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Removed Other Columns", "Valid date")
in
    #"Expanded Valid date"

Steps are:

1. Add two Index columns: one is starting from 1 with step 1 and the other is starting from 0 with step 1. 

2. Merge the query with itself based on Dept. and Index columns. Expand the result table column and select only "valid from" to expand. Rename this column to "valid to".

3. Sort rows by "Dept." and "Valid from" columns ascendingly. 

4. Replace null values in "valid to" column to today's date. 

5. Add a custom column with List.Dates to get dates between "valid from" and "valid to".

6. Remove unnecessary columns. 

7. Expand the date list column generated from step 5.
