Time intelligence related issue

Hello Community,

Greetings!

 

I am running into some serious issue, I have a data set which has columns shipstart, shipend and profit amount, 
1) Based on this data set I wnat to calculate if date is in between 1/8/2022 and 31/7/2023 I want sum of Profit amount this is easy part.
2) Tricky part is, if my shipend date is after 31/7/2023, First I have to calculate number of months between shipstart and shipend date than divide profit amount by total month .
3) Calculate total months between shipstart date and 31/7/2023 than multiply it with profit amount which I got from point 2.
4) The total should show combination of all 3 points.

Ship startShip endApproved offers $  Total months from shipstart to 7/31/2023Total number of monthsProfit amount/Total number of monthH8*F8

@Anonymous Maybe:

Column = 
  VAR __ShipStart = [Ship start]
  VAR __ShipEndDate = [Ship end]
  VAR __Offer = [Approved offers $]
  VAR __TotalMonths = DATEDIFF( __ShipStart, __ShipEnd, MONTH ) + 1
  VAR __TotsMonths = DATEDIFF( __ShipStart, DATE( 2023, 7, 31 ) + 1
  VAR __Result = DIVIDE( __Offer, __TotalMonths ) * __TotsMonths
RETURN
  __Result
