Hi @ShantanuDagar you can use the DateTime Now tool, and bring the field into a report text tool so you can add it to your report however you want.
Alternatively, the Report Header tool can also be used to include the current date.
Hope that helps

Hello @OllieClarke
Can it be suffixed to output file name somehow instead of inside report which is just a table.

Hi @ShantanuDagar
Yes it can.
If you group by the date, then you can append it on to the filename
Hope that helps,
Ollie

If the goal is to have today's date in the output file name only, you can just drag that formula tool before the render and group it by date as suggested above and it will do the trick.
