Another option:



Create a sub-procedure and insert the following:



/free

exec SQL

select Last_Day(current_Date) + 20 days into :dueDate

from sysibm/sysdummy1;

return dueDate;
/end-free

I'd move the date to an array or substring it, move '20' to the day field,

Should be falling off a log simple..

Hi Booth.

Have you tested this for when the date is (say) January 31st?

Id normally go back to the first of the month, then add 1 month and 20
days

Cheers,
Martin

Another simple task...

I need to calculate the 20 of the next month from today, whatever today
is.

duedate = (%date() + %month(1)) - (%subdt(%date()): *d) + (%days:
20)

Seems like a choice but ... what are some of the other ways that work
easily?
