Fill dates

Date > Fill dates

This tool allows you to quickly fill in the start or end dates in selected cells for each year, quarter, month, or week. This eliminates the need to manually enter or calculate the start/end dates of periods (e.g., 01.01.2024, 31.03.2024, 01.04.2024, etc.), which significantly speeds up the creation of date series for planning, accounting, or data analysis.

The tool automatically determines the start or end of the period (year, quarter, month, or week) and fills the selected cells backward from the current date.
