Hello,



i’d like to add X month to a given date. Example



12/31/2019 + 1 month = 12/31/2020



=EDATE(date,months)



How can i do this with Airtable. I got stuck, because there is no EDATE function like in Excel.



Thank you for your help

Hi @eminogrande - you can use the DATEADD() function:



DATEADD(Date, 1, 'months')

Hi all,


I have the same question but, instead of wirting the duration (1 in exemple above) I want to refer to a previous column.


I tryed DATEADD({date},{field with duration},‘months’) but it doesn’t work (initial date is displayed)


The field with duration is a lookup from another table and is set as Number, integer format


Any idea?


Thanks for your help,

A lookup field is actually an array. You can turn it into a string by adding quotation marks after it like this:



DATEADD({date},{field with duration}&"",'months')


Hi Scott,


It works fine.


I will check the meaning to understand and use it.


Many thanks,


Laurent
