Hi,

 

My excel date shows like this format.

But when I run it in Alteryx it shows like this in VWString format.

The Formula tool where you're treating [ASOFDATE], with all expressions open so we can see what you're doing

@KamenRider In your formula for DATE1, change your Data Type (bottom drop down) to DateTime. It's currently set as a V_WSTRING (default).
