Hi,

sunindia‌ suggestion working for me.  You just try to add the Amount Field in your Preceding Load. see below

Table:

   LOAD Date,

  Date(Date, 'MMM-YY') as MonthYear,

  Year(Date) as Year,

  Month(Date) as Month,

  Num(Month(Date)) as MonthNum,

  Day(Date) as Day

Amount;


LOAD Date#(Date,'YYYYMMDD') as Date,

    Amount

FROM

Test.xlsx

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is All);

Load Date_Temp as Date,

  Date(Date_Temp,'MMM-YYYY') As 'MMM-YYYY',

  Month(Date_Temp) As 'MM',

  Day(Date_Temp) As 'DD',
