Hi @Aamir_khan
You can use the Power Query editor.
I try this solution but in some of the date gets errors
Hi @Aamir_khan
Can you paste a sample with some good and bad ( errors ) examples?
That's because you want to parse in the US format while you should in the UK one... or the other way round. You have to convert using Change Type with Locale.
If you scan all the messages in this thread... you'll notice a picture in which there's an option "Using Locale..." You have to use it.
Best

Date = Date(left([column],4),mid([column],6,2),right([column],2)
If it has already column detected as date try to change the format
You can also create a formatting
Formatted Date = format([New date],"YYYY/MM/DD")
