Hi,
Need below in Power Query only please:
Using Current Month as reference, I want to create 12 blank queries which will be used as parameters -- which shows Date of First Friday of every month. 12 queries will be for last 12 months.
Thanks in advance
Solved! Go to Solution.
@mb0307 my bad, I didnt understand your question correctly! You can either add a custom column based on your Date column and fetch the first friday of each month for your calendar table:
Date.StartOfWeek(#date(Date.Year([Date_Key]),Date.Month([Date_Key]),7),Day.Friday)
or, you can create a table with the last 12 months and add a custom column to fetch the correspondent first friday of the month:
let
Dates = Table.FromList(
List.Generate(
()=> [Month Start = Date.StartOfMonth(Date.AddMonths(DateTime.LocalNow(),-12)), idx = 11],
each [idx] >= 0,
each [Month Start = Date.StartOfMonth(Date.AddMonths(DateTime.LocalNow(),-[idx])), idx = [idx]-1],
each [Month Start]),
Splitter.SplitByNothing(),{"Month Start"}),
dateType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Dates,{"Month Start", Date.Type}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(dateType, "First Friday", each Date.StartOfWeek(#date(Date.Year([Month Start]),Date.Month([Month Start]),7),Day.Friday))
in
#"Added Custom"
Hope this answer solves your problem!

@mb0307 hey there! No problem at all! The code is pretty similar actually:
let
Dates = Table.FromList(
List.Generate(
()=> [Month End = Date.EndOfMonth(Date.AddMonths(DateTime.LocalNow(),-12)), idx = 11],
each [idx] >= 0,
each [Month End = Date.EndOfMonth(Date.AddMonths(DateTime.LocalNow(),-[idx])), idx = [idx]-1],
each [Month End]),
Splitter.SplitByNothing(),{"Month End"}),
dateType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Dates,{"Month End", Date.Type}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(dateType, "Last Friday", each Date.AddDays([Month End], -Date.DayOfWeek([Month End],Day.Friday)))
in
#"Added Custom"

Hello there @mb0307 ! You can achieve that with the following:
let
Dates = Table.FromList(
List.Generate(
()=> [Month Start = Date.StartOfMonth(Date.AddMonths(DateTime.LocalNow(),-12)), idx = 11],
each [idx] >= 0,
each [Month Start = Date.StartOfMonth(Date.AddMonths(DateTime.LocalNow(),-[idx])), idx = [idx]-1],
each [Month Start]),
Splitter.SplitByNothing(),{"Month Start"}),
dateType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Dates,{"Month Start", Date.Type})
in
dateType
Hope this answer solves your problem!

@goncalogeraldes thanks for the response, but this is not giving me First Friday of the month as shown the in image of my post.
Your query just return Start of Month.
