Have a problem with the Date function.

  This is my actual data and I want it in this form:  

Date Sales
Jun-2016 250,789.00
Jul-2016 298,780.00
Aug-2016 293,530.00
Sep-2016 300,732.00
Oct-2016 298,572.00
Nov-2016 331,043.00
Dec-2016 315,519.00
Jan-2017 362,522.00
Feb-2017 305,626.00
Mar-2017 338,963.00
Apr-2017 313,843.00
May-2017 351,418.00

But what I see in Qlikview is

When creating date in the script, finally put date() around your expression like:

Load

          Date( YourCurrentDateField, 'MMM-YYYY') as NewDate
