What I'm trying to do is to use EDATE to add buffer time to my dates
It seems that for example =EDATE(C168,-0.5) I cannot use 0.5 for 1/2 month and 1.5 for 1 1/2 months for example
Is there any workaround or another command I can use to get my desired output?
Maybe?
=C168-0.5*30
May be

did a bit of googling, best answer looks to be here
but it seems needlessly complicated and I don't need a high degree of accuracy so I'll just use "DATE"-15 for 1/2 months and EDATE(A1,-1)-15 for 1/2 months
Two options:
Option 1)
For -0.5: (average of 0 and -1)
=AVERAGE(EDATE(C168,{-1,0}))
For 0.5: (average of 0 and 1)
=AVERAGE(EDATE(C168,{0,1}))
For -1.5: (average of -2 and -1)
=AVERAGE(EDATE(C168,{-2,-1}))
Option 2)
For -0.5:
=AVERAGE(EDATE(C168,FLOOR(-0.5,1)),EDATE(c168,CEILING(-0.5,1)))
Similar to option 1 with -0.5 is rounded in to 0 and -1
Change -0.5 to 0.5 or 1.5 based on requirement.
