You need to use the DATEMOV function. It's easy to get the current quarter. I am assuming that I can subtract 3 months from the current date and get the previous quarter. Also I can add 3 months to the current date and get the next one. Here is my code.

Mark

 
MAINTAIN
MODULE IMPORT(MNTUWS)

COMPUTE MON/M=3;
COMPUTE NOW/A10 = TODAY2();
COMPUTE NOW1/MDYY = NOW;
COMPUTE LAST1/MDYY = NOW1 - MON;
COMPUTE NEXT1/MDYY = NOW1 + MON;
COMPUTE BOQ/MDYY = DATEMOV(NOW1, 'BOQ', BOQ);
COMPUTE EOQ/MDYY = DATEMOV(NOW1, 'EOQ', EOQ);
TYPE "CURRENT DATE"
TYPE " <<NOW1"

TYPE "CURRENT BEGIN / END OF QUARTER"
TYPE "BOQ = <<BOQ"
TYPE "EOQ = <<EOQ"

COMPUTE BOPQ/MDYY = DATEMOV(LAST1, 'BOQ', BOPQ);
COMPUTE EOPQ/MDYY = DATEMOV(LAST1, 'EOQ', EOPQ);
TYPE "PREVIOUS BEGIN / END OF QUARTER"
TYPE "BOPQ = <<BOPQ"
TYPE "EOPQ = <<EOPQ"

COMPUTE BONQ/MDYY = DATEMOV(NEXT1, 'BOQ', BONQ);
COMPUTE EONQ/MDYY = DATEMOV(NEXT1, 'EOQ', EONQ);
TYPE "NEXT BEGIN / END OF QUARTER"
TYPE "BONQ = <<BONQ"
TYPE "EONQ = <<EONQ"

END
