As noted many times here, 8.x does more stringent checking on things like this. Post your data and syntax, you'll need to correct it to avoid that warning.

Then details if you like. Are you doing an explicit DateFromString() call in a transformer? Converting one type to the other in a Modify stage? That's about all the guessing I'm prepared to do.

The message may simply be caused by your string being defined longer that absolutely necessary to store a date of the format specified in your job. But, without the details we've already requested, it's impossible to say.
