If you want to do this from the template, create a custom template tag: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/howto/custom-template-tags/

I don't have experience with MSSQL, but if you want to convert the date server-side, this should work: http://blogs.msmvps.com/robfarley/2009/03/25/converting-to-and-from-julian-format-in-t-sql/ You could add the custom SQL as a RawSQL: https://docs.djangoproject.com/el/1.10/ref/models/expressions/#django.db.models.expressions.RawSQL

Depending on how your data is represented, you could also solve this with a custom model field: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/howto/custom-model-fields/ The conversion code should go in the from_db_value() method.
