    Hello @jcepon,


    You could use:


    =VALUE(YEAR([Contract Expiration Date]@row) + RIGHT("00" + MONTH([Contract Expiration Date]@row); 2)) - VALUE(YEAR([Contract Effective Date]@row) + RIGHT("00" + MONTH([Contract Effective Date]@row); 2))


    However: be aware for the transition of years: for example the diff between dec-21 and jan-22 is of course 89 and not 1 with this formula. Of course the formula must be modified taken into account the transition of years, something with MOD(....;12) when Years differ. If anyone has an idea ???
