A client was using the formula MonthName(@MonthStart,-1) in a column heading. Obviously this use the current date and does not allow the specification of a starting period. Using Report.FormatPeriod(@StartPeriod,-1) gets the period as 10-2021, 09-2021, etc. Is there another formula that would return the description of the period as Oct 2021, Sep 2021 etc?

+6It does not support the shift option like =Report.FormatPeriod(@StartPeriod,-4)
Translate
=Format( '{0: MMM yyyy}', DateAdd( Report.GetPeriodEndDate(@StartPeriod), 'm', 0))
=Format( '{0: MMM yyyy}', DateAdd( Report.GetPeriodEndDate(@StartPeriod), 'm', -1))
=Format( '{0: MMM yyyy}', DateAdd( Report.GetPeriodEndDate(@StartPeriod), 'm', -2))
