Considerations when using the ENDOFMONTH function

The dates argument can be any of the following:

• A reference to a date/time column. Only in this case a context transition applies because the column reference is replaced by CALCULATETABLE ( DISTINCT ( <Dates> ) )
• A table expression that returns a single column of date/time values.
• A Boolean expression that defines a single-column table of date/time values (when used in a CALCULATE filter argument).
