IIF([start_date]> DateTimeLastOfMonth(), 1,
DateTimeDiff(DateTimeLastOfMonth(),[start_date],"month")+1)

Hi @shijieleong 

 

Do you mean how you can use a Date interface tool in your workflow so you can have a calendar to select the date rather than manually typing the date each time?

You mentioned interface, so meaning Analytic Apps?
