This should work.

please specify your question.

MonthName(InvoiceDate,-3)

delivering 'Apr 2014' would mean InvoiceDate is any date from July 2014 shifted by -3 months to April.


If you mean, you would like to get 'April 2014' instead of 'Apr 2014', then

Date(MonthName(InvoiceDate,-3), 'MMMM YYYY')

is what you are looking for.


hope this helps


regards


Marco
