Hello,
I have a starting table as input. It has 3 colomuns. Please see below. I would like to get a new table that will have more rows based on original table. See table below, Each Date# has every Activity# and every Source#. In this example, there are 4 dates, 2 activities, 2 sources. Therefore the final table row count is 4*2*2 = 16.
Can this be done in DAX?
StartDate | ActivityName | Source |
Date1 | Activity 1 | Source1 |
Date2 | Activity 2 | Source2 |
Date3 | ||
Date4 |
The final table result should be:
StartDate | ActivityName | Source |
Date1 | Activity 1 | Source1 |
Date1 | Activity 2 | Source1 |
Date1 | Activity 1 | Source2 |
Date1 | Activity 2 | Source2 |
Date2 | Activity 1 | Source1 |
Date2 | Activity 2 | Source1 |
Date2 | Activity 1 | Source2 |
Date2 | Activity 2 | Source2 |
Date3 | Activity 1 | Source1 |
Date3 | Activity 2 | Source1 |
Date3 | Activity 1 | Source2 |
Date3 | Activity 2 | Source2 |
Date4 | Activity 1 | Source1 |
Date4 | Activity 2 | Source1 |
Date4 | Activity 1 | Source2 |
Date4 | Activity 2 | Source2 |

See the working here - Open a blank query - Home - Advanced Editor - Remove everything from there and paste the below code to test (later on when you use the query on your dataset, you will have to change the source appropriately. If you have columns other than these, then delete Changed type step and do a Changed type for complete table from UI again)
