Used the text input tool to insert a table with the last day of each month and joined it with parsed dates.

My solution.

 

1. Extract the month + 1 and the year

2. Create a date using year, month + 1, day 1

3. Use datetimeadd to subtract 1 day

 

Had to watch out for the year when calculating the month + 1. If the month number is 12, then have to also add 1 to year for month + 1.
