PostgreSQL Function Exceptions

PostgreSQL Function Exceptions

Use the following rules and guidelines when pushing functions to PostgreSQL:
  • To push the TRUNC(DATE) function to the PostgreSQL database. you must define the date and format arguments.
  • If you define only a string argument for the TO_DATE() and TO_CHAR() functions and omit the format argument, the PowerCenter Integration Service returns a string based on the default date format
    MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS
    specified in the session property.
  • When you push the SYSTIMESTAMP() function to a PostgreSQL database, do not specify the format argument. If you specify the format for SYSTIMESTAMP, the database ignores the format and returns the complete time stamp.
  • When you push the TO_BIGINT and TO_INTEGER functions to the PostgreSQL database, the PowerCenter Integration Service ignores the flag arguments.
  • When you push the IN() function to the PostgreSQL database, the PowerCenter Integration Service ignores the CaseFlag argument.
  • When you use the NS format string to set the nanoseconds for the ADD_TO_DATE() function, the PowerCenter Integration Service does not push the ADD_TO_DATE() function to PostgreSQL.
  • The PowerCenter Integration Service cannot push TO_CHAR() and TO_DATE() functions to PostgreSQL if you use the NS, JQW, SSSSS, and RR formats.
  • You can use formats such as D, HH24, MI, MM, MS, SS, US, and YYYY when you push the TRUNC(DATE) function to the PostgreSQL database.
