I need a formula that looks at todays date and returns the financial month (not calendar)as an integer eg February should be returned as 8 and can be either +ve or -ve as I will use abs() to convert it. I know it can be done with a lookup table but I was hoping to avoid this. Should be easy but maths was not my strong subject.

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest

Should read :-

=MONTH(TODAY())+6

not quite, the financial periods run from July to June therefore the above formulas for December returns 18 where as it should return 6.

=IF(MONTH(NOW())>6,ABS(MONTH(NOW())-6),MONTH(NOW())+6)
