This looks like a question that needs Home Assistant knowledge. Few, if any, here use HA, so you might be better asking in an HA forum.

I will get a try on HA forum.
Thanks.

The date input just requires the string no need to use Date.parse().
so

{ "date" : "{{msg.sba_echeance}}"}

should be all you need.
