Grouping Dates

Hi,
I'm new in QlikView.

I have a web file (excel) uploaded, there is a date field (DD/MM/YYYY) that I would like to group by Year, and I would like to use this group in my pivot table and my chart.

Example:

Department	Project Number	Project Start Date	Year (GroupingDate)
Sales	100001	08/01/2010	2010
Procurement	100002	10/01/2011	2011
Finance	100003	09/01/2011	2011
Finance	100004	03/01/2014	2014
Procurement	100005	01/01/2012	2012
Sales	100006	03/01/2011	2011
Sales	100007	06/01/2012	2012
Sales	100008	10/01/2011	2011
Procurement	100009	02/01/2013	2013
Finance	100010	05/01/2012	2012
Finance	100011	08/01/2012	2012

Do I need to create a calculated field? Or a dimension ?
