Creation of Table Using a Date Field in a Table

Hi.
I have a table that looks like the following

Asset IDDate Registered
A05/02/2008
B21/06/2016
C04/10/2020


Need to loop through this table and for each asset ID and I would like to create a new table which uses the date and creates years from the date registered so I can then fill the data from another measures tables with the spend per asset per defined year...So I want a table like this

Asset IDDate RegisteredYear #Start YearEnd Year
A05/02/2008Year 105/02/200804/02/2009
A05/02/2008Year 205/02/200904/02/2010
A05/02/2008Year 305/02/201004/02/20011
A05/02/2008Year n05/02/2021 


Does this make sense what I require?
Any queries, please ask
Thanks

HI @hermanitor 

Try like below


LOAD *, Year(DateRegistered)+IterNo()-1 as Year, 'Year '& IterNo() as YearName, MakeDate(Year(DateRegistered)+IterNo()-1, Month(DateRegistered), Day(DateRegistered)) as StartYear
, MakeDate(Year(DateRegistered)+IterNo()-1+1, Month(DateRegistered), Day(DateRegistered)-1) as EndYear
INLINE [
Asset ID, DateRegistered
A, 05/02/2008
B, 21/06/2016
C, 04/10/2020
]while Year(DateRegistered)+IterNo()-1 <= Year(Today()) ;

Just fyi.....
Was using the above table with my qvd load and found that it really did not like dates like 01/11/15....(DD-MM-YY)....
Had to load the table beforehand and take a day of where the dd was 01....
Quite an interesting issue to be honest
