Hi Abhi,

Your if condition is not correct.

Syntax is

If(Expression, return value if condition satisfied, return value if condition not satusfied)

You have an expression but you are not returning anything, the 2nd parameter, the 3rd parameter is optional.

thanks,

Hi,

I guess you trying to get date if both the condition is satisfied

try this

if(DEP_ACCT_OPN_DT >= $(CurrentMonth) and DEP_ACCT_OPN_DT <= $(PreviousMonth), DEP_ACCT_OPN_DT ) as FirstMonth,


Hope it helps

Hi,

How you assigned it to a variable?

Variable Assignment should be

SET CurrentMonth= Date(floor(monthstart(Today())));
