    I believe the error is because the format method returns a string, whilst the key of your map is an integer. The following code should give you what you require:

     

    use(groovy.time.TimeCategory) {
	def now = new Date();now.format("yyyy-MM-dd")
	def tomorrow = now + 1.day
	def todayplus3m1d = now + 3.month + 1.day
	def tomorrowday = now + 1.day; tomorrowday.format("d")
	def tomorrowmonth = now + 1.day; tomorrowmonth.format("M")
	
	def map = [1: '1316', 2: '1317', 3:'1318', 4:'1319', 5:'1320', 6:'1321', 7:'1322', 8:'1323', 9:'1324', 10:'1325', 11:'1326', 12:'1327']
	def item = map.find {key, value -> key==tomorrowmonth.format("M").toInteger()}
	log.info item.value
}

    I've only amended the map.find line, note the call to the method "toInteger()" on the result of the format method.
