I asked IBM for some help on this, and got the following response...

The date format 'CYYDDD' isn't supported by the CEE Date/Time APIs. You'll
need to transform that date into a supported IBM i date format (i.e. YYDDD)
before using CEEDAYS to convert it into a Lilian date.

Thanks for everyone who responded.

has to be a two-step solution.


%char(%date(%int(CDAY) + 1900000: *LONGJUL))

Ugly, but possible.

I would write procedures to convert to/from JDE dates, and then it wouldn't
matter how many lines it took.
