Hi All,

 

Below gives me the 1st day of the current quarter I just want to subtract by 1 day to get to previous quarter or if there is a better way to write this.

 

Left(DateTimeToday(),5)+
PadLeft(ToString(3*Floor((DateTimeMonth(DateTimeToday())-1)/3)+1,0),2,"0")+"-"
+ "01"

 

Thanks,

BosKev

I would do:

DateTimeAdd(
    Left(DateTimeToday(),5)+
    PadLeft(ToString(3*Floor((DateTimeMonth(DateTimeToday())-1)/3)+1,0),2,"0")+
    "-01",-1,"days")
