I have a calculated column using the formula below.......the result returned is not as expected.
The value returned for Jan 23 - Sep 23 should be "Forecast" but its returning "Actual"??
Can anyone help? Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,
Try this instead:
ACT/FC =
VAR _FPDate = DATE([FP Year], [FP Month], 1)
VAR _CurrDate = DATE([Current Year], [Current Month], 1)
RETURN
IF(_FPDate < _CurrDate, "Actual", "Forecast")
Thanks but that hasnt worked either, result below using AND
Hi @Anonymous ,

Thanks but that didnt work either, delivered the same result as the original formula
Sorry made a typo, yes this formula has worked ok, thanks for your help
Hi @Anonymous ,
I think you need to adjust your formula to use AND instead of OR:
ACT/FC = IF([FP Year] < [Current Year] && [FP Month] < [Current Month], "Actual", "Forecast")
