Split event for timechart

Hi, have you tried to do something like this ? I need to calculate the duration and then calculate a % availability line chart(timechart). I could do it with 2 months consecutive but it is not a good solution.
Input:

beginend
2020-03-062020-07-06

 

Expected output:

beginend
2020-03-062020-03-31
2020-04-012020-04-30
2020-05-012020-05-31
 2020-06-012020-06-30
 2020-07-012020-07-06

Thanks in advance.

Hi @thuhuongle ,

I think the span attribute in timechart command may work for you.

Hi @t_shreya,
I dont think span could be a solution because i need to split a event to multiple events based on its begin and end accordingly. 
Thanks anyway
