Powerquery add column If date in another column is more than a year ago

Hi Jo74 ,
That is something that can be done using Microsoft Power Query Formula language(informally called as M language).
Follow this documentation to learn more about M query
Power Query M formula language reference - PowerQuery M | Microsoft Learn
As mentioned by OwenAuger, the provided M query will help you in creating a new column that you want.
Please reach out to us if you have any further quries related to the provided M query or in power query in general

Thanks for trying this Jo.
Just to clarify, my sample M code was intended to illustrate the steps that should be added to the query after the step that produces your existing table.
The Source step in my sample should be replaced with whatever steps produced your initial table, then the Date Threshold and Added New Column steps added after this.
You could add these steps either in the Advanced Editor or by adding steps and entering code in the formula bar.
Here is a short recording of how I would apply this starting from the table you just posted, using the formula bar to enter the steps, and I have attached a PBIX with this query:
Thank you for your help. I did not manage to get it to work and have just added a simple column after the powerquery in Excel. Afraid this is outside my realm of understanding!
