Data in date fields aggregated

Hi all,

 

I converted a date field from this format - 05/28/2023 - to this format - 05/2023 since each row has a day in the date field and I want it to aggregate on my table. It worked fine, with one flaw. It isn't aggregating the row data on my table and instead looks like the below. I just need the month and year so the table aggregates it so it's one month per row. Does anyone know the work around for this one? Thanks in advance!
