Question on Trailing Decimal in Sequential File
Posted: Thu Aug 07, 2014 3:27 pm
Hi,
We are reading in data from a Mainframe DB2 table defined as Decimal(3,0) and we are just passing this field through a transformer with the same metadata from the DB2 connector. The sequential file for this field ends up with a trailing decimal, is that expected?
ex: 123.
I know we can manipulate teh output if we declare it as a Varchar and do some basic string manipulation but wanted to check if this is the expected outcome for this scenario.
Thanks - - John
