Thank you for your response!

However, i am looking for the date should change based on the month in which i run the workflow. if i run in April, it should show April 20th if in May, the output should be May 20th.

Hello :)

 

What you are trying to accomplish with filtering for dates with specific formatting, or just filtering out on "Current Month" data is definitely do-able in Alteryx. 

 

I provided 2 different approaches for your convenience:

 

 

1) Add a new column for the "Current Month" with "Yes" or "No" Values 

2) Re-formatting the date column to show mmddyyyy format, mentioned in your post
