How to rename continuous date field headers.
Steg
Use the following workaround.
  1. In Tableau Desktop, select Analysis > Create Calculated Field.
  2. In the Calculated Field dialog box that opens, enter a name for the field. In the example packaged workbook, the field is named Begin Date.
  3. In the formula field, create a calculated field similar to the following:
    STR( CASE MONTH([Order Date] ) 
    WHEN 1 THEN "January"
    WHEN 2 THEN "February" 
    WHEN 3 THEN "March" 
    WHEN 4 THEN "April" 
    WHEN 5 THEN "May" 
    WHEN 6 THEN "June" 
    WHEN 7 THEN "July" 
    WHEN 8 THEN "August" 
    WHEN 9 THEN "September" 
    WHEN 10 THEN "October" 
    WHEN 11 THEN "November" 
    ELSE "December" End)
    +" "+STR(DATEPART('day', [Order Date] ))+", "+STR(DATEPART('year', [Order Date] ) )
    where [Order Date] is the date field being used in the sample workbook view. Click OK.
  4. Drag Order Date to Rows.
  5. Right-click Order Date on Rows, and then select More > Custom > Month / Day / Year. Click OK.
  6. Right-click Order Date again and clear the check mark next to Show Header.
  7. Drag Begin Date to Rows.
