Issues with evaluating Dates

I need to evaluate a date in a 'target closure' column, and report the fiscal quarter.

I have created a separate sheet to help me automate it.

The Fiscal Calendar sheet has 3 simple column with Quarter Number, Quarter Start Date and Quarter End Date (screenshot below) (The start and End Date column are Date Columns)

in my main sheet then I have the Target Closure Date column and the column where I want to calculate the quarter

I have the below formula

=INDEX(COLLECT({Fiscal Quarter}, {Quarter Start Range}, <=[Target Closure Date]@row, {Quarter End Range}, >=[Target Closure Date]@row), 1)


It works like a charm except for dates falling in the FY22Q4 range.

so if my Target Closure date is the 2nd of November 2021 I have an error (invalid value), but if the date is 31st October 2021 it correctly reports FY22Q3


Any idea?
