Hello!
I have a column with date "2021-06-09T00:00:00.000Z" with storage type and meaning both as "date". Could you please show me how I can convert this to YYYYMM format? I tried using the the format date option in prepare recipe but its converting to YYYY00 instead of YYYYMM.
I have attached the date snippet below in PDF format.
Thanks!

What is the 'Date format' chosen in the 'Format date' processor?
If you put 'yyyyMM' in that cell you should get the desired result.

Thanks much! It worked! I didn't know the "mm" in "yyyyMM" has to be in block letters. This is very helpful.
