Joanna - perhaps try using
datestr(now,'yyyymmdd')
instead/

You could also do it using datetime by specifying the display format using the Format name-value pair.
>> filename = sprintf('out_%s.xlsx', datetime('now','Format','yyyyMMdd'))
filename =
'out_20210519.xlsx'
This seems like a simple workflow so it might not matter, but if you are working with dates and times, datetime would be recommended over using something like datestr or datenum.
