So I am looking for a Bulk MDE S&R definition to clear a custom date
See attachment 1. Note that there is a problem with the current release of calibre where the date isn't cleared properly. I have submitted a fix.

So the question is - can someone furnish a Bulk MDE definition that will convert a custom date value into to a 'YYYY-MM-DD' string and append it to a custom tag-like value.
See attachment.

So, it would be useful if I could put those four definitions into a group and execute the group in a single operation, anyone have any thoughts on that?
I know of no way to do that.
