I used the function datejul() which converts julian date to a sas date value and then used the format yymmdd10.  Need to check if there is format for yyddmm. Else we need to separate the month and day from the date and then concatenate them into yyddmm. if there is any other way , would like to know it

data t;

t=2013231;

t2=2013224;

t_=DATEJUL(t);

t2_=DATEJUL(t2);

format t_ t2_  yymmdd10.;

  run;

Thanks,

You can convert a Julian date to a SAS date value with the DATEJUL function.

data t;

format date1 date2 yymmdd10.;

t=2013231;

t2=2013224;

date1=datejul(t);

date2=dateful(t2);

;

run;
