Seems it is not recognizing the YYYY-MM-DD format. In this case am afraid that it has to be done manually by extracting the year, the month, the day using LEFT and MID functions wrapped by VALUE then using the DATE function to calculate the date out of them.
on the other hand you can use MID to extract the time wraped with CONVERT - TIMEThen add the time to date like _date + _time

Could be. I thought the space counts. Probably not?

If you do not need all datetime precision anywhere in the model, I suggest to format it in the source.
