Show release month as "January" rather than "2017-01" in pivot report

When showing the release month in a pivot report, it appears in the form "2017-01" rather than "January".  This makes the table more difficult to read and equate with real months as people know them.

    Thank you for the idea. This is possible today by creating a calculation column in a list report and using it in your pivot report. The status of this idea was out of date.

    Steps:

    1. Create a release list report with the release date

    2. Add a new calculation column to your list report

    3. Enter in the formula bar: dateformat(field("Release date"),"%B")

    4. The column will display the month of the release date as January, for example

    It would also be nice to have a choice on how the date format was to display.

    I agree, the date would be so much easier to read if it were text.
