Hi Matt!
Thanks for reaching out.
The error message is saying, that the date value you are trying to add is actually the following:

’20–m,06′What this suggests is that you haven't used single quotes on both ends of the expression, but you have used a single quote ( ' ) once, and a back quote the other time ( ` ). Please make sure you're using single quotes (or double quotes) on both sides. If this doesn't resolve the problem, can you please paste the entire trigger query, so that we can look into more detail? Thank you. Hope this helps.
Best,
Martin
