Create a measure that returns the full date of the first day of the following month from 2 slicers

Hello everyone,

.

So in my Report I use two slicers one for the MONTH (1,2,3,4 ....12) and the other one for YEAR (2014, 2015 .... 2020). So I want to create a measure that when I choose the month & year from the slicer it returns the 01st of the following month.

 

Example

MONTH = 7 (selected from a slicer)

YEAR = 2015 (selected from a slicer)

 

Measure returns = 01/08/2015 in date format.

 

 

Thanks in advance 🙂

 

EDIT: The correct syntax is : 

Measure = EDATE(DATE(SELECTEDVALUE(Slicer[Year], SELECTEDVALUE(Slicer[Month]),1),1)

Hi @Anonymous 

Measure =
DATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( SlicerT[Year] ), SELECTEDVALUE ( SlicerT[Month] ), 1 )

Hi,

If the month and year are from the Calendar Table, then try this measure

=max(calendar[Date])+1
