The following workaround has worked for other customers:

In the information map for the source report, make a copy of the Date data item. Edit the expression to use the PUT function and include the desired format like this:

PUT(<<PRDSAL2.DATE>>,DATE9.)


Change the Expression Type to Character.

Add this data item to the source report but hide it in the crosstab. When you create your link, associate this hidden copy of the Date data item with the prompt in the target report.
