Hi @lastnn30 ,
In the first screenshot, you can follow the functions provided above to find the year, month, and day of different conditions.
For example, Year: Year – Start Year -- End of Year.
If you want to format Date and Time directly, you can use the second one directly
Right-click the column – Change Date – Date/Time
