Hi @Niru I would used a Summarize tool to get the max date and then using a combination of a Join tool and append field tools it should provide the output you require. I've mocked up an example let me know what you think?

Hi @Niru,

 

This wasn't so quick for me 😛 

 

What I am basically doing is I am changing if for the last day in the previous month we have the same statuses if for the current month.

In order to do so I am using Concat function:
