Convert Date to Julian Date

Rascal

I am trying to convert a date to a Julian date, DDDYY or YYDDD. I have done this in excel before, but I am not having much luck in Smartsheet

Hello @Rascal

You will need 2 helper columns for the date using the formulas =Year and =YearDay and the Julian Date formula to be =RIGHT(Year@row, 2)+ YearDay@row

@Rascal Since Smartsheets does not do this natively, I have only been able to make it work with a formula in a Text/Number column by taking apart and rebuilding the date.

=JOIN(YEAR(DATE@row),"/",MONTH(DATE@row),"/",DAY(DATE@row))

@Rascal Heyo, I actually just streamlined it, you don't need helper columns. For your Julian Date, just use the following formula =RIGHT(Date@row, 2) + YEARDAY(Date@row)
