EDATE (date before/after n months)

Syntax:

EDATE(StartDate, m)

Description:

This returns the date that is m months before/after StartDate. This enables you to determine appointments that fall on the same day of another month.

m is the number of months.

If m is positive, the program calculates a date that is m months after the StartDate.

If m is negative, the program calculates a date that is m months before the StartDate.

m should be an integer. If this is not the case, PlanMaker automatically removes the decimal places.

Example:

EDATE("03/30/2018", 1) returns 04/30/2018

EDATE("03/31/2018", 1) also returns 04/30/2018 because April only has 30 days.
