@spikenaylor1  Maye be :

Date(Floor(Alt(Num(Date#(DateField, 'MM/DD/YYYY')), Num(Date#(DateField, 'DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm')))), 'DD/MM/YYYY') as NewDateField

Example :

Data:

load *,
Date(Floor(Alt(Num(Date#(DateField, 'MM/DD/YYYY')), Num(Date#(DateField, 'DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm')))), 'DD/MM/YYYY') as NewDateField inline [
DateField
07/12/2020
04/12/2020
01/01/2021
24/12/2020 18:32
27/12/2020 11:56
]

output:
