Hi,
Basically I have a weekly plan through a whole month, the table may like this:
The plan will be handled from 1st weekday(Start Day) to 4rd weekday(End Day) each week, I want to transform them to concrete Start Dates and End Dates in the table by creating custom columns. The expected output may like:
How can I arrive it in Power Query instead of using DAX, perhaps it needs to be loopped but it confused me a lot.
Regards
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Mage
Start Date
Date.AddDays(Date.StartOfWeek([Date],0),[Start Day])
End Date
Date.AddDays(Date.StartOfWeek([Date],0),[End Day])

You do not need loop in this case, and you can easily solve it bu using the next code
let
Source = Table.FromColumns({List.Dates(#date(2024,7,1),31,#duration(1,0,0,0))},{"Date"}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Start Date", each Date.StartOfWeek([Date])),
#"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "End Date", each Date.StartOfWeek([Date])+#duration(3,0,0,0))
in
#"Added Custom1"
in another casaes, if you need loop, check this video

Hi @Mage
Start Date
Date.AddDays(Date.StartOfWeek([Date],0),[Start Day])
End Date
Date.AddDays(Date.StartOfWeek([Date],0),[End Day])
