But this one is not working for SELECT CONVERT(CHAR(6), '2012-09-15', 112);i mean When we provide a hard coded date.
As mentioned, you need to convert that string to a date first.
But, even better yet, follow the practice of hard-coding dates following the ISO standard. YYYYMMDD, without hyphens. That avoids issues with localization and conversion.
