I need to have one end date for any start date within the past year - so multiple submissions throughout the year but the expiry should be based on one year from the first entry date. If request was made on Nov 11,2021 - expiry will be Nov 10, 2022. If another submission is made on Dec 13,2021 - expiry date should still be Nov 11, 2021. Can you help?

Hi, can someone please give me a formula to calculate number of days for each month from a start to end date.
for example if I had a start date of 28/05/21 and end date 10/06/21, the result would be 4 May days and 10 June days.
Thanks
