I have the formula for the duration of months between 2 dates. However, I need to add 1 month if the end month days is greater than the beginning month. See below for example;

I tried using EOMONTH, but that doesn't seem to do what I need it to. The following Code goes in the Months Required.
Code:
=IF([@ECC]=[@EAS],DATEDIF([@EAS],EOMONTH(EASCO,0),"M"),DATEDIF([@ECC],EOMONTH(EASCO,0),"M"))
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<TBODY>[TR]
[TD]EASCO=[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]19-Mar-19[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]ECC[/TD]
[TD]EAS[/TD]
[TD]Months Required[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2-Feb-19[/TD]
[TD]2-Feb-19[/TD]
[TD]1 (needs to be 2 since the day in Mar (19) is greater than the day in Feb (2).[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]21-Jan-19[/TD]
[TD]5-Feb-19[/TD]
[TD]2 (Correct)[/TD]
[/TR]
</TBODY>[/TABLE]

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
I was able to work this out. Changed it to days, and divided by 30. Also added a statement that if the ECC or EAS is greater than or equal to EASCO, then the result is 0.

Please note that this solution will not work for everyone as there are more than or in some cases less than 30 days in a month. But for our purposes, 30 days works exactly as needed.

Code:
=ROUNDUP(IF(OR([@ECC]>=EASCO,[@EAS]>=EASCO),0,IF([@ECC]=[@EAS],DATEDIF([@EAS],EOMONTH(EASCO,0),"d"),DATEDIF([@ECC],EOMONTH(EASCO,0),"d")))/30,0)
