Are you talking about SQL Server or UI?

Hi,

I am not sure what exactly you mean by saying "to put the date into a '2014/05/03'"...

In SQL Server, date values are stored in an internal format, not something like "DD/MM/YY", "YYYY/MM/DD", etc. But there are rules for how different datetime formats are interpreted. If you'd like to know more about it, then read this article:
The ultimate guide to the datetime datatypes[^]

Here's how to get the date in "YYYY/MM/DD" format:
1. SQL Server:

SQL

SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 111);

Result:

XML

2014/05/03

2. SSIS:

SQL

(DT_STR, 4, 1252) DATEPART("yy", GETDATE()) + "/" + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) DATEPART("mm", GETDATE()), 2) + "/" + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) DATEPART("dd", GETDATE()), 2)
