Any ideas on how to swap a to&from date table to monthly using DI?

Question

New to DI, so after a bit of product usage advice!
I've got a table that looks like this...
ID,NAME,SDATE,EDATE,TOTALDAYS,WEEKDAYS
1,James,01/01/2010,10/01/2010,10,6
2,John,03/02/2010,19/02/2010,16,13
1,James,15/04/2010,23/07/2010,100,72
3,Chris,05/08/2010,05/08/2010,1,1
2,John,30/08/2010,03/09/2010,5,5
3,Chris,28/09/2010,06/10/2010,9,7
I want it in a format thats a bit more like this...
YEAR,MONTH,ID,NAME,TOTALDAYS,WEEKDAYS
2010,JAN,1,James,10,6
2010,FEB,2,John,16,13
2010,APR,1,James,16,12
2010,MAY,1,James,31,21
2010,JUN,1,James,30,22
2010,JUL,1,James,23,17
2010,AUG,3,Chris,1,1
2010,AUG,2,John,2,2
2010,SEP,2,John,3,3
2010,SEP,3,Chris,3,3
2010,OCT,3,Chris,6,4
Anyway to do this type of operation in DI?
It's not a huge data set (k's of rows) - but I need it in this sort of format do do some monthly reporting.  So far in DI I've only really used simple lookups and joins - more a load tool - so hope this type of thing is relativley standard stuff?
Thanks for any advice!

You can use below functions in query transform:
to_char(<input_date type value>, <'YYYY | MON>') to get the year / Month.
