I am using DATETIME_PARSE, but it has problems with some months in spanish, as you can see in the screenshot.
I am trying to convert those months, but I cant get the way.
Any ideas ??

A collection of nested SUBSTITUTE()
functions should do the job to replace the Spanish abbreviations with their English equivalents (this sample only swaps a few; add more nested functions to cover any missing months with spelling variations):
SUBSTITUTE(
SUBSTITUTE(
SUBSTITUTE(
{Fecha Vencimiento}, "ABR", "APR"
), "DIC", "DEC"
), "AGO", "AUG"
)
Wrap that inside a DATETIME_PARSE()
function:
DATETIME_PARSE(
SUBSTITUTE(
SUBSTITUTE(
SUBSTITUTE(
{Fecha Vencimiento}, "ABR", "APR"
), "DIC", "DEC"
), "AGO", "AUG"
), "DD-MMM-YYYY"
)
