Calculating next date

xman1968
6 - Meteoroid

Hello,

 

I have a requirement based on the following data;

for each unit, I need to set the Next_date field as the next consecutive start_date less one day. For example, the next date for line 1 should be 19-Jan-2020, line 2 should be 14-Feb-2020. And since there are no further lines for unit 1 on line 3, the next date should be today. Is there a way to do this in Alteryx?

 

thanks,
