Create a new table with multiple rows for each ID based on date.

Hello everyone, and thank you in advance. 

 

I have a dataset with this general form:

Table1.JPG

 

I am trying to generate a table that has a row for each date in between the start and end date inclusive for each ID, that would look something like this:

Table2.JPG

I am having trouble with the part where I want a new row for each date in between the start and end date. Does anyone have any suggestions?

@DarrenBL

With Query Editor

 

Add this Custom Column

 

={Number.From([Start])..Number.From([End])}

Now Expand it to new rows

 

Now convert this column into date format

Hi @DarrenBL

 

USing Edit Query on the table

 

Paste the following code in the Advanced Editor

 

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjQwUNJRMjDUByIjA0NLKMcYxjE1AAKlWB2QSkOopBFM0tAUiWNkClYZCwA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ID = _t, StartDate = _t, EndDate = _t, Number = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ID", Int64.Type}, {"StartDate", type date}, {"EndDate", type date}, {"Number", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "ListGen", each List.Transform({Number.From([StartDate])..Number.From([EndDate])}, each Date.From(_))),
    #"Expanded ListGen" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Added Custom", "ListGen"),
    #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded ListGen",{{"ListGen", type date}})
in
    #"Changed Type1"

 

Change the Source with your table.

 

If this works for you mark this as solution and also give KUDOS.

Needs some work but this should provide the general idea and get you started.

 

Table = 
VAR __table1 = FILTER(ALL('Table11'),[ID]=100)
VAR __table2 = FILTER(ALL('Table11'),[ID]=101)
VAR __table3 = FILTER(ALL('Table11'),[ID]=102)
VAR __tableA = GENERATESERIES(MINX(__table1,[Start]),MAXX(__table1,[End]),1)
VAR __tableB = GENERATESERIES(MINX(__table2,[Start]),MAXX(__table2,[End]),1)
VAR __tableC = GENERATESERIES(MINX(__table3,[Start]),MAXX(__table3,[End]),1)
VAR __tableA1 = CROSSJOIN(__tableA,__table1)
VAR __tableB1 = CROSSJOIN(__tableB,__table2)
VAR __tableC1 = CROSSJOIN(__tableC,__table3)
RETURN
UNION(__tableA1,__tableB1,__tableC1)
