Transform datefield

Buildning my first application and have run into problems with an excelfield that i have as source data. The format is yyyy-mm-dd hh.mm.ss and i want to transform it into year ([Entrydate]) as year in the Load statement but dont get no data from it (also the same tranformation with month).

How can i transform it, either in the load or in the designer?

Sorry,

you should use a timestamp#() function instead Date#()

Hi,

Try the below script


date#(Left([Enter Date],10),'YYYY-MM-DD') as EnterDate,
Year(date#(Left([Enter Date],10),'YYYY-MM-DD') ) as Year
