Hi

 

I am trying to create a new column for some data which has a number of months/years in it's own column and I want to create a new column to represent the financial years for this data. eg: 

YEAR_MONTH
201912
201810
201810
202002
201904
201908
201806
202002
201907
201811
201805
201912
201906

 

I want an extra column showing : 

YEAR

2018/19

2019/20 etc

 

the Year Month column is currently  'Int32' if this helps

 

thanks

Thank you but I need the financial year ie: 2018/19, 2019/20, 2020/21 etc, this example works when i try it but it has the month after the / which is also in your example and I need the year .

Hi @Disey 

 

If your financial year runs April to March then try this:
