Show null for certain date

I have DESKI report and certain date column is getting inserted as a default date 1/1/753 12:01:00 AM. I would like to show as null whever the value is above. This i tried using with alerters, but i applied with decode statement in universe. Some reason, even though i decoded in universe, still showing the value as 1/1/1753 12;01:00 AM. Please advice how to make it null.

Replace your date object with a variable like

= if( FormatDate( [Date variable]; "dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss AM" ) = "1/1/1753 12;01:00 AM"; ; [Date variable])
