Create Variable that is Today -6 Months

MalcolmCICWF — Wed, 09 Apr 2014 17:04:55 GMT

I have the below in my script to create a variable that is the minimum and maximun date for my field. What would I need to change to make the variable identify 6 months from TODAY(). I want the Min variable to be 6 months in the past and the Max to be 6 in the future. I have modified it but cannot figure out the correct function to identify month.

LOAD
num(min(daystart(column_fields))) as MinPoolDate,
num(max(daystart(column_fields))) as MaxPoolDate

RESIDENT IRR_Data;

DROP TABLE IRR_Data;

LET vStartDate = Date(peek('MinPoolDate',0,'Temp'),'M/DD/YYYY');
LET vEndDate = Date(peek('MaxPoolDate',0,'Temp'),'M/DD/YYYY');

DROP TABLE Temp;
