EOMONTH function

PRO BASIC

The EOMONTH function in Jspreadsheet Formulas Pro is a useful tool for working with dates. This function provides the last day of the month, based on a specific number of months you define, either before or after a certain date. For instance, if you want to know the final day of the month, three months from a specific date, the EOMONTH function will give you this information. It's a handy function for managing and planning around dates.

Documentation

The EOMONTH function returns the last day of the month that is a specified number of months before or after a given date.

Syntax

EOMONTH(start_date, months)

Parameter	Description
`start_date`	The start date to use in the calculation.
`months`	The number of months before or after the start date. A positive value for months yields a future date; a negative value yields a past date.

Behavior

The EOMONTH function is used to return the last day of the month that is a specified number of months before or after a specified date. Here's how it behaves:

If the start_date is a blank cell, EOMONTH returns an error.
If the start_date is not a valid date, EOMONTH returns an error.
If the months value is not a numeric value, EOMONTH returns an error.
The function treats boolean values as integers. True is interpreted as 1 and false is interpreted as 0.
The function ignores any time component of the start_date.
The function supports 1900-01-01 to 9999-12-31 date range.

Common Errors

Error	Description
#VALUE!	This error is displayed when the start_date is not a valid date, or the months argument is non-numeric.
#NUM!	This error is displayed when the resulting date is outside the valid range of dates (1900-01-01 to 9999-12-31).
#REF!	This error is displayed when a referenced cell in the formula is not valid.

Best practices

Always ensure that the start_date is a valid date, otherwise, the function will return an error.

Be mindful of the fact that EOMONTH ignores any time component of the start_date.

Make sure the resulting date stays within the valid range of dates (1900-01-01 to 9999-12-31), or else you will get a #NUM! error.

It's better to use cell references rather than direct data insertions for the start_date and months arguments as this increases the flexibility and usability of the EOMONTH function.

Usage

A few examples using the EOMONTH function.

EOMONTH("2022-01-15", 3) returns 44681
