I'm trying to view volume profile for a "QUARTER" (past 3 months) period, but not sure how to code it. Anyone have any suggestions? TOS volume profile code below.

Code: 
#
# TD Ameritrade IP Company, Inc. (c) 2010-2018
#

input pricePerRowHeightMode = {default AUTOMATIC, TICKSIZE, CUSTOM};
input customRowHeight = 1.0;
input timePerProfile = {default CHART, MINUTE, HOUR, HOUR2, HOUR4, HOUR9, DAY, DAY2, WEEK, MONTH, "OPT EXP", BAR, YEAR};
input multiplier = 1;
input onExpansion = no;
input profiles = 1000;
input showPointOfControl = yes;
input showValueArea = yes;
input valueAreaPercent = 70;
input opacity = 15;

def period;
def yyyymmdd = GetYYYYMMDD();
def seconds = SecondsFromTime(0);
def month = GetYear() * 12 + GetMonth();
def day_number = DaysFromDate(First(yyyymmdd)) + GetDayOfWeek(First(yyyymmdd));
def dom = GetDayOfMonth(yyyymmdd);
def dow = GetDayOfWeek(yyyymmdd - dom + 1);
def expthismonth = (if dow > 5 then 27 else 20) - dow;
def exp_opt = month + (dom > expthismonth);
def year = getYear();
switch (timePerProfile) {
case CHART:
    period = 0;
case MINUTE:
    period = Floor(seconds / 60 + day_number * 24 * 60);
case HOUR:
    period = Floor(seconds / 3600 + day_number * 24);
case HOUR2:
    period = Floor(seconds / 7200 + day_number * 24);
case HOUR4:
    period = Floor(seconds / 14400 + day_number * 24);
case HOUR9:
    period = Floor(seconds / 32400 + day_number * 24);
case DAY:
    period = CountTradingDays(Min(First(yyyymmdd), yyyymmdd), yyyymmdd) - 1;
case DAY2:
    period = CountTradingDays(Min(First(yyyymmdd), yyyymmdd), yyyymmdd) - 2;
case WEEK:
    period = Floor(day_number / 7);
case MONTH:
    period = Floor(month - First(month));
case "OPT EXP":
    period = exp_opt - First(exp_opt);
case BAR:
    period = BarNumber() - 1;
case YEAR:
    period = Floor(year - First(year));

It doesn't seem to work in my code. I only want to show the VAL, VAH, and POC.
Code:

def day_number = DaysFromDate(First(yyyymmdd)) + GetDayOfWeek(First(yyyymmdd));
def dom = GetDayOfMonth(yyyymmdd);
def dow = GetDayOfWeek(yyyymmdd - dom + 1);
def expthismonth = (if dow > 5 then 27 else 20) - dow;
def exp_opt = month + (dom > expthismonth);
def qtr = if getmonth()==1 then 1 else if getmonth()==4 then 2 else if getmonth()==7 then 3 else if getmonth()==10 then 4 else qtr[1];
def period = qtr ;
#floor(qtr - first(qtr));
def height = PricePerRow.TICKSIZE;

Since the code you provided is not the same as your original request and does not seem to have all parts of the code, I can not test it. However, the changes I made in what I posted for the TOS version of Volume Profile, had another change that is necessary in it that you did not reflect in your most recent code. Change the def cond and see if that helps.

def cond = if period==qtr then period!=period[1] else count < count[1] + period - period[1];
