How do I change String to DateTime for multiple columns at once?

Hello,

 

I have 3 columns Settled_Date, Invoice_Date, Due_Date with different values like the image attached below. I need to convert to DateTime data type. How do I do this? I tried DateTime parse and Multiple Join, it worked but it would give me 3 icons and would not join those icons. Thank you for your help!

Use the Multi-Field Formula tool.

 

What do you mean by "it would give me 3 icons and would not join those icons"?  Can you post a sample workflow?

Thank you for your reply. Here is my sample workflow. Three DateTime Convert icons.  When I do Join Multiple, it gives me an error.
