What is Add Months?

“Add one month” is ambiguous on the 29th, 30th or 31st, and naïve date arithmetic gets it wrong by rolling into the next month: January 31 plus a month should be the end of February, not March 2 or 3. Contract end dates, billing anniversaries and subscription renewals all land on this edge, so the clamping rule matters.

How it works

The target month is found first, then the day is set to the smaller of the original day and that month's length — 31 clamps to 28 in February, 29 in a leap year. When clamping happens the tool says so, naming the original and applied day, so a contract date is never silently a day off.
