Hi,

You can use the CASE function to know the selected month in number refer the below example as reference:

Text(CASE(TEXT(monthpicklist__c),

"January",1,

"February",2,

"March",3,

"April",4,

"May",5,

"June",6,

"July",7,

"August",8,

"September",9,

"October",10,

"November",11,

"December",12,0))

 

Can you explain in detail with an example so that I can create a formula.

Your explaination is really hard to follow, it would be a lot better if you could pos an example with the actual caluculation you're trying to perform in your formula, like this:

 

MonthlyFee * 
(13 - 
CASE(Month,
"Jan", 1,
"Feb", 2,
"Mar", 3,
"Apr", 4,
"May", 5,
"Jun", 6,
"Jul", 7,
"Aug", 8,
"Sep", 9,
"Oct", 10,
"Nov", 11,
"Dec", 12,
0))
