    You can use Carbon, laravel has a helper built in

    now()->subMonth();

    Docs

    You can view all available Carbon functions in your project at the following path:

    vendor/nesbot/carbon/src/Carbon/Carbon.php

    To get last month. More Carbon options

    1. subMonth() => if month back

      Carbon::now()->subMonth(); # (returns 2023-04-05) 
# This will print the month back from the current date.

    2. startOfMonth => If the start of the current month

      Carbon::now()->startOfMonth(); # (returns 2023-05-01) 
# This will print the month's start date from the current date.

    3. subMonth()->startOfMonth() => If start of the last month

      Carbon::now()->subMonth()->startOfMonth(); # (returns 2023-04-01) 
# This will print the month's start date from the current date.

    To Update your model, update your $fillable, and simple update/create will work

    # Example if User update
$user->created_at = $lastMonth;
$user->updated_at = $lastMonth;
$user->save();
