Hi folks,
I have a table data:
I need create two more columns like this:
and fill in the START and END columns following the formula:
START = END OF PREVIOUS MONTH (in this case the month of september)
END = (START + ENTRANCE) - EXIT
The dates are varied, they can comprise several periods according to the user's parameter date filter. I always have the START number for the first month given through a "STARTDATE" measure DAX.
I imagine the path is to do in M, can you give me a light?
Thanks for any help.

Hi @credencial ,
Here is the whole M syntax:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WKk4t0DcyUNJRgiBDAwOlWJ1opfzkEoiwKYgwAysAiefll0HELUCEoRFcIiU1GSJhhKQhFgA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Date = _t, Entrance = _t, Exit = _t, End = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date", type text}, {"Entrance", Int64.Type}, {"Exit", Int64.Type}, {"End", Int64.Type}}),
#"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Changed Type", "Index", 0, 1, Int64.Type),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Index", "Custom", each try #"Added Index" [End] {[Index] - 1} otherwise null),
#"Filled Down" = Table.FillDown(#"Added Custom",{"End"}),
#"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Filled Down", "Custom.1", each if [Index]=0 then [End] else [End]+List.Sum(List.Range(#"Filled Down"[Entrance],1,[Index]))-List.Sum(List.Range(#"Filled Down"[Exit],1,[Index]))),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom1",{"Custom"}),
#"Added Custom2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Removed Columns", "Custom", each try #"Added Custom1" [Custom.1]{[Index] - 1} otherwise null),
#"Removed Columns1" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom2",{"Index", "End"}),
#"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Removed Columns1",{{"Custom.1", "End"}, {"Custom", "Start"}})
in
#"Renamed Columns"
The final result is this.

Here's one way to do it in the query editor. To see how it works, just create a blank query, open the Advanced Editor and replace the text there with the M code below. Did you mean to do + Exit - Entrance, since the End date is before the Start date with the formula above? You can adapt this, if so.
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45Wyk8u0TcyUNJRMgURZgZKsTrRSnn5ZRBBCxBhaAQRTUlNhogawZTGAgA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Date = _t, Entrance = _t, Exit = _t]),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "DateForCalc", each "1/"&[Date]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom",{{"Entrance", Int64.Type}, {"Exit", Int64.Type}, {"DateForCalc", type date}}),
#"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Start", each Date.EndOfMonth(Date.AddMonths([DateForCalc], -1)), type date),
#"Added Custom2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom1", "End", each Date.AddDays([Start], [Entrance] - [Exit]), type date)
in
#"Added Custom2"

Thanks @mahoneypat .
I tested your suggestion, but I didn't get the result. Maybe I didn't explain it right. I need this result:
