Hi,
you can use clock-component. If this date format is not supported, you must transform it by an self-written algorithm. “split text …, at …”- and/or “replace all text …, segment …, replacement”-blocks should help. :blush:

Thanks for reply,
But if it has to be done by splitting, replacing, etc…
then it would be classic,
Isn’t there an easy way?

Doing that isnt that hard. I think its actually pretty easy, but no I dont think there is another (easier) way to do this.

Try this, using DateTools extension by @vknow360

It means your input may be some mistake. Date format should be as shown by @dora_paz . Also she posted along with debug value as true. If false mean chk up your input.
