Group by date

Hi,

I am having some trouble trying to group fields by month/year. My end result is still bringing in day DDMMMYYYY but I only want the data grouped by MMMYYYY.

Data Load Editor:

Concatenate

LOAD Only(DATE([Created],'MMMYYY')) as StockDate2,

CustID,

Location,

    sum(TotalQty) as Receipted2,

    sum([Length])/2.54 as Length,

    sum([Width])/2.54 as Width,

    sum([Height])/2.54 as Height

Resident [L2-LocationInventory] group by CustID, Location, (DATE([Created],'MMMYYY'));


For this data I am using a table to display my results:

StockDate2CustIDLocationReceipted2LengthWidthHeight
Jan2018AUK20101520
Feb2018BUK50101015

Would be grateful for any assistance.

    sum([Height])/2.54 as Height

Resident [L2-LocationInventory] group by CustID, Location, text(DATE([Created],'MMMYYY'));


Try this,

Even if you covert the date using date format, Qlik will store original date as value so it will not work for aggregation (Like Excel only outside format will be changed but not value).
