Julian Date conversion in the script

[sudhakar_budde]

Hi,

We have Julian dates in our SQL Server database.

I can convert them on the database client as well as in the script at the sql part of the script.

But I am doing two part ETL. 'Source --> Staging' and  'Staging --> Final qvd'.

So, I don't want to perform coversion on the database in the 'Source --> Staging' script.

Once the data is loaded to Staging, can I convert in the 'Staging --> Final qvd' script??

I mean without hitting the database again.

E.g:

  SELECT schedwin.WO.DATECREAT,  DATEADD(s, ABS(DATECREAT), '19700101') AS
Record_Create_Datetime FROM schedwin.WO

Result:

DATECREAT	Record_Create_Datetime
1432809061	2015-05-28 10:31:01.000
1441291351	2015-09-03 14:42:31.000
1441291952	2015-09-03 14:52:32.000

Is there any wahy to do this in QlikView script please?

Thanks

SB

These are not Julian dates. They are UNIX times, i.e. number of seconds since 1970-01-01.

Try

  TimeStamp(MakeDate(1970) + DATECREAT/24/60/60) as MyDate
