DateTime.LocalNow - returns "Function"

Hi, 

 

Below is the data for which I want to get today's date, if it's in current month. I wrote a formula, which is returning as "Function" in cell value. How to get Today's date in the cells. 

if Date.IsInCurrentMonth([End Date])=true then DateTime.LocalNow else [End Date]

End DateRequired date

When I click on Function it goes to invoked function and shows current time and date. Please help me with this.
