Hi @SH_94 

You can use Multi Field Formula tool when you want to manipulate the multiple field with same formula by a single tool.

Hi, @SH_94 

 

FYI.  (Change output type to 'date'.)

 

DateTimeParse(ToString([_CurrentField_]),'%Y%m%d')

You can use the regex_replace function to change the string into a date.

you could use the transpose tool to get the data in one coloumn and then use datetime tool / formula with datetime parse and then cross tab tool. If you don't want to use regex
