Quarter from Numeric Date

Hello all!  I am in need of some help - I have searched the boards and not found quite what I'm looking for.  I have a date field, '%TicketCompletedDate' that is in 5-digit numeric form, e.g. '43662' and I would like to extract the quarter from that date in the format 'Q#-YYYY' and be able to sort sequentially. (Q1-2021, Q2-2021...Q1-2022, Q2-2022, etc)  Can anyone help me with that, please?

Perhaps QuarterName(%TicketCompletedDate) would work here?

Try a simple mapping like below. Create the quarter table, and map it to the date. In visualization you simply concatenate quarter and year.

QuartersMap:
MAPPING LOAD
rowno() as Month,
'Q' & Ceil (rowno()/3) as Quarter
AUTOGENERATE (12);

,ApplyMap('QuartersMap', month(Date), Null()) as Quarter

I hope it helps.
