If specific month

Hi - 

I would like to convert a date field to fiscal period, which requires me to increase any date in Nov + Dec to a year later. I am not sure of what formula would do this "If month=11 or month=12  then year+1"

 

 

PeriodFiscal
11/1/201811/1/2019
12/1/201812/1/2019
1/1/20191/1/2019
2/1/20192/1/2019
3/1/20193/1/2019

 

thanks!

Assuming that the dates are in Alteryx format (yyyy-mm-dd) then using a Formula tool to make the Fiscal column:

 

IF DateTimeMonth([Period])>10 THEN DATETIMEADD([Period],12,"months") ELSE [Period] ENDIF

 

should work.
