Not getting years and month

Hi Community,

In my scrip I am using below method to create year and month for my table but now sure as why I am getting blank in years and month column while checking in data modeling.

Created_Date,
YEAR(Created_Date) as TYear,
MONTH(Created_Date) as TMonth,

Is there any idea? I did apply the same way before it worked always but not for now.

Try

YEAR(date(Created_Date)) as TYear,
MONTH(date(Created_Date)) as TMonth

 

 

If that doesn't work you may need to use date#() to define the format of your date field.

Maybe your created_date content have changed?

What happens if you do

Num(created_date) as numdate, 

Dayname(created_date) as Dayname

Hey there,

This can happen for many reasons such as:

  • Environment Variables not matching with your data ence the problem of not resolving the Year
  • Data inconsistency in the Created_Date field caused by multiple types of writing the date field
  • If changes were applied in the time and region on the OS it may cause this error

A workarround simple is to make the Created_Date in number value and then in date, only after that you can invoke the Year and Month functions. Try this:

Created_Date,
YEAR(date(num(Created_Date))) as TYear,
MONTH(date(num(Created_Date))) as TMonth,

Let me know if it worked.

Best regards,

seems like some text values are encountered in your Date field.  Can you take that date field in filter pan and see if any left aligned values?

Hi Kush,
