Using a simple Date Time Converter for 1-2020 (input) will not correctly output using the Custom Format of m-yyyy, why is that?

Hi @AFerency 

 

If you look closely in the options in DateTime tool

m is actually minutes and not month.

 

And Month needs to be taken as MM 2 digits.

 

Hope this helps 🙂

So it seems I was trying mm-YYYY first, instead of MM-yyyy.

 

Thanks again! The captial letters in different spots made all the difference.
