The notification activity does not allow you to use formulas on its input-fields, but it does allow to pass a single parameter.

So either you encapsulate the Notification activity in a separate sequence that has the notification-subject as its parameter and format the parameter on input to the sequence, or you use the Built-In DSSendMail-Routine (which is called by the notification activity anyway).

Use System-Variable @DATE and function oConv() to format your date value according to your needs.
