    Cell does not react to formatting

    Hello,
    I have a pivot table that is pulling dates from a source sheet.
    The dates in the source sheet are a formula results that is returning a Friday based on the date: [=E2+5-WEEKDAY(E2,2)]. I formatted the result to be shown as a long date.

    When creating a pivot chart I select that column to be shown in Rows.
    The result that I see for some reason is Month where that Friday is...
    I don't understand how to change that "Jan" to ANY other format (short or long date).
    Thanks for your help.
    UPDATE: Sample sheet is attached.
    UPDATE 2: I found how to make it work - go to Analyze - Group sub menu - Ungroup.
    This will ungroup dates and will allow you to play with date format.
