How do I format date value as yyyymmdd or any specific using SSIS expression builder?

I have a scenario where I need to create a folder on fly with current date in YYYYMMDD format.

Here is simple solution how we can achieve using Expression Builder in SSIS packages. Pick the variable that’s needs to be configured.

Go to properties of the variable you want to configure and click expression.

A Popup window will appear where you can select the variable you want to configure

Select the property you want to override. For me its Destination path property of the Source folder variable I am using in my package.

C:\Development\XXXXX\XXXXX\20130516\

Here is code that needs to append to the variable. So here is what I have used to get this in below format. 

(DT_STR,4,1252)DATEPART( "yyyy" , getdate() ) + 
RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252)DATEPART( "mm" , getdate() ), 2) +
RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252)DATEPART( "dd" , getdate() ), 2)

 For me its yyyymmdd format if you want some other format just change the interval one of the following this as per your requirement

• yyyy – Year
• q – Quarter
• m – Month
• y - Day of year
• d – Day
• w – Weekday
• ww - Week of year
• h – Hour
• n – Minute
• s - Second

Hope this helps!!!
