Date Format - not working

Hello,

 

help! I am driving crazy 😞

There is no way I can format the date to be able to work with months or quarters.

When I choose "Transform data" apparently the field "Invoice date" was turned into a Date Format.

 

but then, When I go to the report to bring "invoice date" into a column chart for instance, the field is not formated as "date" as you can see in both images below.

 

Could you please help me? What I am doing wrong?
