We have data fields in the format, for example, 12Jun22 I need to format like 12-06-2022 
as shown in the below table:

date expected format
12Jun22 12-06-20222
13Jun22 13-06-2022

Splunk has the strptime and strftime functions for that purpose.

| eval date=strftime(strptime(date, "%d%b%y"), "%d-%m-%Y")
