I don't quite understand, you can use the function: Month('ColumnName')

or, if you want year and month number, something like:

concatenate(year(ColumnName),
month(ColumnName)).

(and in the event that you always want a leading zero, an if >0 and another concatenate would be nice)


I don't know if it's what you were looking for. If you can give an example, better 😁
