Decimal Datatype

Post by idw2ty »

Can someone explain to me why datastage seems to default all numbers to the decimal datatype? I am using Oracle tables, with columns all defined as number and all integers, but it seems as though datastage trys to make the integers into decimals. I get a lot of warnings about scale, when my numbers have no scale. Any help I could get so I can stop the warnings would be appreciated. Thanks.

hello

you can use BigInt in the datastage table definition to support oracle datatype integer, it will remove all of your warning messages.
