That is a good technique for the date type you show, but a long julian is 
YYYYDDD (1 <= DDD <= 365 or 366) so it would not work.

Q... does anyone have any suggestions on how to convert a 7 digit long julian 
date (passed as an integer) using SQL where we could put it into a function 
like 
this? 

A... I once had a database with almost all 7-digit dates. If they are numeric 
(that's how most of the shops I've worked in have them), you can just use 
this 
expression to get an 8-digit date: 

CCYYMMDD = CYYMMDD + 19000000
