If you are looking to partition a table by month, but the table will only contain 1 value for that month (ie the month end date for example),
is the best way to implement this still to Partition by Range as per example below, or is there a more optimal solution. 
Eg 
     PARTITION BY RANGE_N(TXN_DTE
        BETWEEN DATE '2007-01-01' AND DATE '2007-12-31' EACH INTERVAL '1' MONTH)
