Hey @Meghnagupta, you can use the following expression in a Formula tool:

 

Uppercase(DateTimeFormat(DateTimeParse([Input],'%Y%m'), '%Y-%b'))

 

Just replace [Input] with your actual data field.

@DataNath  This formula is not giving any result

Can you tell me why? Any particular error you're getting? If your incoming data i.e. in format 202401 is in numeric format, you'll need to convert it to a string first. For that you can use:

 

Uppercase(DateTimeFormat(DateTimeParse(ToString([Input]),'%Y%m'), '%Y-%b'))

Wohho, thank you. I forgot to convert it to string initially. @DataNath
