Date format change from YYYY-MM-DD to DD-MM-YYYY

Hi Team,

I have a date format like YYYY-MM-DD with a Date Datatype. But I need it like DD-MM-YYYY format only with Date Datatype. I have achieved it using Formula Tool. The problem is, it is in String format but when I convert it to Date, the values are showing null. I have attached sample screenshot for your reference. Can anyone please help on this. Many more thanks. 0.png1.png2.png3.png

The Date format in Alteryx is YYYY-MM-DD.
If you force a string which is not "YYYY-MM-DD" format, it will thow a warning and get null value eventually.
