hi, can I use a case or if with a set command ?

declare @Date2 datetime

case when day(getdate()) <20 THEN
SET @Date2 = DATEADD(dd,18,DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm,0,getdate()), 0))
ELSE
SET @Date2= getdate()
END

SELECT @Date2

This doesn't work, is there a similar way ?

SELECT @Date2 = CASE WHEN day(getdate()) <20 THEN DATEADD(dd,18,DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(mm,0,getdate()), 0)) ELSE getdate() END

SELECT @Date2

E 12°55'05.25"
N 56°04'39.16"
