I'll pull some more out, the date may be off by one day as I was looking at a scheduled date that is in yyyymmdd format and is the only one that has a time I can read.
If someone from Jack Henry is reading, I know that their conversion teams work with these oddball dates all the time and maybe they could ask someone they know who would know :-)

It's possible that someone will recognize those values and be able to tell you how to convert them. For the rest of us, it would be helpful to at least provide one other date and one other time (more would be better), so that we might figure it out.
The only existing established datetime schemes I know of that would have "big" numbers are Julian Day number and Unix timestamp, neither of which fits your data. Your date is *vaguely* in the range of Unix timestamps; it could be the number of seconds since a different epoch than the Unix epoch, but of course there's no way to know without at least one other reference point.
