    Hi again,

     

    Something like this works for me:

     

    import java.time.*
import java.time.format.*

def initialDateString = "2019-03-31" // this should be extracted dynamically but for the purpose of this example I guess it's ok

// Create a LocalDate object
DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd")
LocalDate date = LocalDate.parse(initialDateString, formatter)

date = date.plusMonths(1) // Update the date
def modifiedDateString = date.format(formatter) // Create a String in case you need to process this date further

    Let me know if I can help you further!

Lucian , Thanks for the reply, Actually adding a calendar month. 

if the application date were to be "2019-03-31 then + one month date should be 2019-04-30

if application date = 28/02/2019 then + one month date should be 28/03/2019

if application date = 15/01/2019 then + one month date should be 15/02/2019 .. etc
