Date format in text column

Hi.
I have this one: Test = CONCATENATE(related(apdv035_ppap_dim[_Exist_PPAP]), ", "& (RELATED(apdv302_part_period_dim[ea_minus_40])))

The column is text.

The output is: No, 12/5/2022 

But I want it like: No, 2022-5-12

 

How??

Hi:

Can you try 

Result = DATEVALUE([Test])

 

Also there are formatting options on top ribbon:
