But the issue I am facing is with the date column. It is getting loaded in number format. I tried converting it into date format using date and date# function but couldn't achieve desired result.

I need your suggestions.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

while loading the excel after clicking the Embedded labels click Cross Table

and enter the Qualifier fields ,attribute fields and data field.

For the desired format use CrosTable load

Cross Table(Date,Att_value,5)

Load * from Excel;

Please attach sample data

Using Crosstable(), you could get that. Try to share a sample excel which we can work upon.
