Look into to_char() for date formatting:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/functions-formatting.html

select to_char(foo, 'YYYY-MM-DD')

If it's not a date already, cast it accordingly

select to_char(foo::date, 'YYYY-MM-DD')

Actually its not for date field..Its integer field
i dont want to have case statements..anything simple way to append?
@user3007361 It cannot be an integer field. (it could be the concatenation of the string representations of three integer fields) please reformulate your question.
