Hey everyone,

I am trying to add a new 24-hour time column to a one column table that contains only dates. The Date column is dynamically pulled from a database that provides dates for 30 days into the future.

I am doing projection work, so there is no original time column for me to pull from.

My goal is to have a total of 2 columns (Date, Time) and 744 rows (31*24).

I have attached a picture of the table that I am working with.

I am relatively new to Power Query so my understanding of M language is still limited.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Excel Facts

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
You are basically trying to do a crossjoin.
Create a second table with the 24 hours in a column and call it time
Go back to the date column, add column, custom column, and type =time
Then expand the new column to generate the table you need.
