Hi Riny, sorry for the confusion.
maybe we are mixing the European and English formats? I hope that is not part of the problem.
D1 = Oct 1 and not sure if you mean 1/10/2021 = Jan 10 (but I assume its oct 1 but in d/m/y. I assume you are in Europe.
To answer your questions:
Frist cell = the first cell for that ID. (ie B2, B6, B9)
Next cell = the next cell for that ID. (ie B3, B7, B10)
D1 (I thk its D2 actually) is oct 1 since the value is oct 15 in B2 (need to return the beg of the month)
D2 (I thk its D3 actually) is Nov 1 since that is the next month after Oct 1. (need to return the beg of the month)
D5 is jan 1 2022 since D4 is Dec 1 2021 and the next month is jan 1, 2022.
I hope its more clear.
let me know... thank you and sorry for the confusion.
