When extracting NUMBER(m,n), the target column can be defines as NUMBER (M,N).

The following conditions still hold in the Teradata PT job for the values m and n.

A Teradata PT job:

  • Terminates with error if n>N
  • Runs if n<N or n=N
  • Runs if m<=M, assuming n<M or n=N
  • Attempts to run if m>M, assuming n<N or n=N
