Using DATEDIF how do I add another month of each date fall on same

[kmt1984]

I am using the following

=DATEDIF(C6,C5,"m")

If I enter the exact same dates the answer is obviously 0, but I want it to
be 1. I only want to add 1 if the dates are exactly the same.

In case it helps I am trying to figure out how far behind an account is, and
if the dates are the same a payment was not made and one more payment would
be due.

Any help would be great!

=IF(DATEDIF(C6,C5,"m")=0,1,DATEDIF(C6,C5,"m"))

Try

=MAX(1,DATEDIF(C6,C5,"m"))

If you mean that literally ("only ... if the dates are exactly the same"),
then:

=datedif(C6,C5,"m") + (C6=C5)

If you really mean "only if the dates are in the same month":

=max(1, datedif(C6,C5,"m"))
