EOMONTH (Transact-SQL)

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW)

Transact-SQL syntax conventions

Syntax

EOMONTH ( start_date [ , month_to_add ] )

Arguments

start_date

A date expression that specifies the date for which to return the last day of the month.

month_to_add

An optional integer expression that specifies the number of months to add to start_date.

If the month_to_add argument has a value, then EOMONTH adds the specified number of months to start_date, and then returns the last day of the month for the resulting date. If this addition overflows the valid range of dates, then EOMONTH raises an error.

Return types

Remarks

The EOMONTH function can remote to instances running SQL Server 2012 (11.x) and later versions. It can't remote to instances with a version before SQL Server 2012 (11.x).
