Convert Integer Date to Date-time format

The Problem

Date information from the source is represented as an integer, with the format YYYYMMDD. We need the information to be represented as a date-time data type in Sisense. 

The Solution

This will utilize a custom field to convert the value. The original date value needs to be defined in the ElastiCube as an integer data type. The following code gets the correct results:
CreateDate(
ToInt(Substring(ToString([Date Num]),1,4)),
ToInt(Substring(ToString([Date Num]),5,2)),
ToInt(Substring(ToString([Date Num]),7,2))
)
