Looking for help generating rows: Getting Months from Quarters

I'm wondering if anyone can provide some assistance with using the generate rows tool. I have a list that has quarters along with turnover rate for that quarter. I need to generate months for each quarter so I can join it back to part of the workflow that does turnover by month. I can't quite figure out how to use the generate row tool to accomplish this. The output should  then have 3 rows(months) with format yyyy-mm-dd for each quarter.

 

I've attached a sample dataset if that helps.

 

Thanks for any help!

Hi @csh8428,

 

Though you can use the generate rows tool, I have a suggestion without it (because there is not end to the date).

Attached workflow might help you.


Best,

Use the formula tool to create date fields for beginning and ending date based on the Q value (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4).

 

Then see this post from earlier today, with an example for Generate Rows:
