Hi,

Is there any way to prevent FME Desktop from converting dates to its internal format?

 

For example, if you get '2024-05-30' I want it to remain '2024-05-30' and not '20240530'.

I understand that it can be useful in some cases but there are others that this automatic conversion becomes a headache.

 

Thank you!

Regards.

The DateTimeConverter will allow you to convert between time formats.

If you were wanting FME to not treat the values as a date from the start, then you could change the format type for that attribute in the reader to string/text instead of date.
