Hi Anil,

Actually there is problem with my data. In excel sheet they use the wrong format.

Format should be (dd-mm-yy) but it is (yy-mm-dd).

Is data format can be changed by Qlik?

You can convert dates with a specific format from strings to numeric date values in your load script like this:

Date(Date#([My Date Field], 'dd-MM-yyyy')) as [My Date Field]
