Hi I'm using the switch function, to replace month number with month name, I need to replace any month name in the past with the current month i.e. replace May with Jun

 

here is what I have so far

Order date =

SWITCH (

   orders[est ship date Month Number],

    1, "JAN",

    2, "FEB",

    3, "MAR",

    4, "APR",

    5, "MAY",

    6, "JUN",

    7, "JUL",

    8, "AUG",

    9, "SEP",

    10, "OCT",

    11, "NOV",

    12, "DEC",

    BLANK (),"No ship date"

)

Hi , @tjeffries 

If I understand your request correctly, you want to convert the past month to the current month  and the future month remains unchanged.

You may refer to this sample pbix file .
