DATEADD -6 Months Measure

Hi,

 

I need to create a measure to store the beginning of -6 months from today for comparrision. If it is 14th June 2023 today, then it should give me 1st of December 2022. Can someone please help? 

 

I am looking for something like the one below but this does not work.

 

STARTOFMONTH(DATEADD(TODAY(), -6, MONTH))

 

Thanks.

  • armchairexpert Try:

    Measure = 
      VAR __EOMonth = EOMONTH( TODAY(), -6 )
      VAR __Return = DATE( YEAR( __EOMonth ), MONTH( __EOMonth ), 1 )
    RETURN
      __Return
