Number(P,S) Datatype

Number(P,S) Datatype

PowerCenter supports Oracle Number(P,S) values with negative scale. However, it does not support Number(P,S) values with scale greater than precision 28 or a negative precision.
If you import a table with an Oracle Number with a negative scale, the Mapping Designer displays it as a Decimal datatype, but the Integration Service converts it to a double.
