Hello, I need to convert this number formatted line item to 04/11/2022. Best approach?

How does this number come in to Anaplan?If it is imported in you could convert to date during import (assuming it comes with a leading zero, 04112022).

It shows a tick in the LINK…

Use case: copy a version (RF1) into a prior year version (PY RF1) using a versions list to allow for year-on-year…
