LastMonth

‎03-29-2019 08:43 AM

I want to show last month from today. I have this measure but instead of February it's showing January. Any idea?

 

LastMonth = FORMAT(MONTH(TODAY()-1), "MMMM") <-- this shows January
LastMonth = FORMAT(MONTH(EOMONTH(TODAY(),-1)), "MMMM") <-- this shows January
LastMonth = MONTH(EOMONTH(TODAY(),-1)) <--- this shows '2' or Feb.
 
Thanks
