How should columns of numbers be aligned?

Always right-align headings and data in columns so that units, tens, hundreds and thousands are aligned and numbers of equal value are easily comparable.

Should dates be aligned left or right?

Dates (in any format) should ideally be left-aligned inside a data table column. A rule of thumb is: integers should be right aligned, while other types of data should be left aligned. The default alignment for most types of data is left alignment -- this helps make the data easily scannable, readable and comparable.

Which alignment can be used in columns?

Adjust vertical and horizontal alignment within Sections and Columns to achieve a “stretch-to-fill” layout. This allows elements of columns with different heights to align with one another.
