Hi Community,

I have date column in Julian. Could you please help me to change it to ddmmyy?

I have never dealt with Julian dates before.

Following are few examples I have in Julian

2019206
2019210

Thanks kindly,
Mags

Use the Datejul Function like this

 

data have;
jd=2019206; output;
jd=2019210; output;
run;

data want;
    set have;
    date=datejul(jd);
    format date date9.;
run;

 

Result:

 

jd       date
2019206	 25JUL2019
2019210	 29JUL2019
