Hi steambucky,
If you are trying to do so using DAX, you can just use the following measure:
YearMonth = table[year] & "-" & table[month]
Or you could use this one:
YearMonth = CONCATENATE(Table[Year], CONCATENATE("-", Table[Month]))
However, if you are trying to create a new column using Power Query, then you can select the 2 columns, right click, then "merge columns", and in this pop up you can select a separator, just input you character: -
Hope that helps
Best,
Valentin

Hi,
The Below is the way you achieve it
Concatenated_Column = CONCATENATE([Year],CONCATENATE("-",[Month]))
