    Custom3 = let
    Source = List.Dates(#date(1996, 1, 1), 500, #duration(1, 0, 0, 0)),#"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Converted to Table",{{"Column1", "Date"}}),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Renamed Columns",{{"Date", type date}}),StartDate = #date(2016, 1, 1),
    Today = DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow()),
    Length = Duration.Days(Today - StartDate),
    Custom1 = #"Changed Type",
    #"Inserted Year" = Table.AddColumn(Custom1, "Fin Year", each Date.Year([Date]+#duration(184,0,0,0)), Int64.Type),
    #"Inserted Month Name" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Year", "Month Name", each Date.MonthName([Date]), type text),
    #"Inserted Day Name" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Month Name", "Day Name", each Date.DayOfWeekName([Date]), type text),
    #"Inserted Quarter of Year"= Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Quarter of Year","Quarter of Year",each Date.QuarterOfYear([Date]),Int64.Type),
    #"Inserted Month" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Day Name", "Fin Month", each if Date.Month([Date]) >=7 then Date.Month([Date])-6 else Date.Month([Date])+6  , Int64.Type),
    #"Inserted Day of Week" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Month", "Day of Week", each Date.DayOfWeek([Date])+1, Int64.Type),
    #"Inserted First Characters" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Day of Week", "MMM", each Text.Start([Month Name], 3), type text),
    #"Inserted First Characters1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted First Characters", "DDD", each Text.Start([Day Name], 3), type text),
    #"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Inserted First Characters1",{"Date", "Fin Year", "Month Name", "MMM", "Fin Month", "Day Name", "DDD", "Day of Week"}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Reordered Columns", "YYMM", each ([Fin Year]-2000)*100 + [Fin Month]),
    #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom",{{"YYMM", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type1", "MonthID", each (Date.Year([Date]) - Date.Year(StartDate))*12 + Date.Month([Date])),
    #"Changed Type2" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom1",{{"MonthID", Int64.Type}})

in
    #"Changed Type2"
in
    Custom3

quarter line from above code

#"Inserted Quarter of Year"= Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Quarter of Year","Quarter of Year",each Date.QuarterOfYear([Date]),Int64.Type),

when i tried this shows an error

Expression.Error: The name 'Inserted Quarter of Year' wasn't recognized. Make sure it's spelled correctly.

and also there is probelm when i rename "Fin Month " to only "Month" this shows also an error

how to resolve this

You have the syntax wrong and self referring to the column that you are trying to create, you need to reference the previous step.

Inserted Quarter of Year

#"Inserted Quarter of Year"= Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Quarter of Year","Quarter of Year",each Date.QuarterOfYear([Date]),Int64.Type),

should be:

#"Inserted Quarter of Year"= Table.AddColumn(#"Inserted Day Name", "Quarter of Year",each Date.QuarterOfYear([Date]),Int64.Type)

Hope that helps
