Hello all!  I am trying to find the correct formula to find the last day of the previous month.  I am running a report that will calculate DSO and I need to multiply by the number of days in the previous month.  Any help would be appreciated!

 

Thanks!

How could this be modified to pull first day of prior month (ie, 2021-07-01).

Previous Month = DateTimeAdd([OriginalDate],-1,"month")

FirstOfPreviousMonth = DateTimeAdd([Previous Month], 1-DateTimeDay([Previous Month]), "days")

LastOfPreviousMonth = DateTimeAdd([OriginalDate], 0-DateTimeDay([OriginalDate]), "days")
