SQL & PL/SQL :: Truncate Precision In Number Datatype Oracle?
Jul 19, 2012
We have truncated number based on the decimal value. i tried to truncate number based on the precision using cast function. i got an error "value larger than specified precision allowed for this colum".
create table TEST_NUMBER
(id number(4,1));
insert into TEST_NUMBER
values(1234.789888888888);
[code]...
ORA-01438: value larger than specified precision allowed for this column
01438. 00000 - "value larger than specified precision allowed for this column"
*Cause: When inserting or updating records, a numeric value was entered that exceeded the precision defined for the column.
*Action: Enter a value that complies with the numeric column's precision, or use the MODIFY option with the ALTER TABLE command to expand the precision.
i want result like 1.8

I have a procedure. Here is the spec
Procedure countyname(i_lat IN Number, i_lon IN NUMBER, o_countyname OUT VARCHAR2);
The procedure works fine when the input parameter values are small precision like 30.653, -618.765 etc.it fails if the Input parameter values have more precise like 35.694872140886...I think the IN Number can only take upto certain precission.
Is there any way I can specify the precision for a NUMBER input parameter in a procedure?
ex: Procedure countyname(i_lat IN Number(30,10), i_lon IN NUMBER(30,10), o_countyname OUT VARCHAR2);
when I tried the above statement it doesn't compile it gives PLS-00103 error.

POWER(47.3616, 27.1261) returns: 2.80403309600359E45 which causes "number precision too large" error in my variable which is defined as NUMBER(20,20).
I've tried ROUNDing and TRUNCing the product, but still get the same long output. The only thing that seems to work is SUBSTR.
Is that the ONLY way to deal with this? It seems like there would be a better way or is there another type I should use these super long decimal results?
SQL> SELECT POWER(47.3616, 27.1261) AS Exp_Val
2 FROM dual;

I am working on an application that pulls data from an Oracle view into Microsoft Excel (Oracle 11g, MS Excel 2003). It is an automated pivot table created through vba. The problem I'm having is that the decimal points from number columns are being truncated - they don't make it to the pivot table.
When I use the pivot table wizard and set the external data source using a SQL string (select * from view), the precision is not lost. When I create the pivot table automatically in vba, the precision is lost. The pivot table settings, regardless of how the data is brought in, shows the format of the number column as general. This tells me that Excel is trying to figure out what the data type is, and can't (not smart enough).
When looking at the description of the view, the data type is NUMBER (no precision). The table that it is pulling from has the precision set (NUMBER(11,3)). I have tried using the following, but it doesn't work:
select to_number(field_name, '99999999.999') field_name from view

001
002
003
and i am changing its size to number(10,3) by alter table command but it not allowing. why?????? as my data in that column still satisfy the the changes.

I want to decrease the size of testid column of number datatype in my "test" named table from size 20 to 15 and the data of maximum size is of 10 digits. but oracle throws an error "ORA-01440: column to be modified must be empty to decrease precision or scale". i cant understand why it is happening?
what is the reason behind it even though new size is maximum than the maximum size of existing data. but when i decrease the size of "varchar2" then oracle does not through any error.

I have a Number(18,0) datatype.It could have millions/billions stored in that field.How can I show that amount in the form of $7,123,787 ($ sign and commas)?
By using To_char function like below, I am not getting the desired format.
Select to_char(123000000.25, '$9,9999999999.00') FROM dual;
Result is (no commas):
$123000000.25

I am facing issue related to Number data while it is being converted to Varchar2, it is automatically getting rounded off after 32 decimal place.My database version is "Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production".
1) create table test18 ( col1 varchar2(10), val Number);
create table succeeded.
2) insert into test18 values ('First', -347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679); -- After decimal 34 digits
1 rows inserted
insert into test18 values ('Second', -347026.64084996524674808857114487141296); -- After decimal 32 digits
1 rows inserted
3) select * from test18;
COL1 VAL
---------- ----------------------
First -347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679
Second -347026.64084996524674808857114487141296
4) As per the requirement, all the columns would need to be concatenated as a single string along with comma delimiter
select col1 || ',' || val as record_string
from test18;
RECORD_STRING
---------------------------------------------------
First,-347026.64084996524674808857114487141297
Second,-347026.64084996524674808857114487141296
"First" string got rounded off to 97 (last 2 digits) instead of 9679 but for "Second" record it holds the actual value.Only thing which I could figure out while the number is getting type casted to String, it is getting rounded off to 32 decimal place.throw off some light on it and provide the solution how the original record can be kept intact without rounding off.
Expected Output_
RECORD_STRING
---------------------------------------------------
First,-347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679
Second,-347026.64084996524674808857114487141296

As per my knowledge, RANGE is better suited for DATE or NUMBER. and INTERVAL partition is possible on DATE or NUMBEr . Column PROFILEIts is of VARCHAR2 datatype. I know still I can partition as Oracle internally convert varchar2 to number while inserting data. But INTERVAL is not possible. How to RANGE partition on PROFILE ? Column CREATED_ON :It is of NUMBER with decimal

I got the error "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: number precision too large" while assigning a value to variable.
For example var Number(5,3);
var:=225.345
Here it should give this error since the no.of digits before decimal should not be more than 2.
In of the procedure, I am getting this error.
Is there any way can we check this violation before assigning this values to a variable?
For example, if the value is too large, we can give a default value etc before assigning it.
Environment: UNIX AIX - 5.3, Oracle 11.2.0.1

When we are trying to create number data type column of a table with precision greater than actual value,it's accepting the definition of the table . But we are unable to insert any values into the table.how internally it stores the value
SQL> drop table precision_test;
Table dropped
SQL> create table precision_test(name number(2,5));
Table created
SQL> insert into precision_test values (1);
insert into precision_test values (1)

Using DB 10.2.0.5, I've encountered a strange behavior today while trying to compare ORA_ROWSCN with a previous SCN stored in a column.
SELECT
h.id HID,
h.ora_rowscn HSCN,
o.id OID,
o.scn OSCN,
[code]......
1157 rows While casting o.scn to a number gives me another resultset (this one is correct):
SELECT
h.id HID,
h.ora_rowscn HSCN,
o.id OID,
o.scn OSCN,
h.ora_rowscn-o.scn DIFF
[code]......
2114 rows I got the same result if I use NVL(o.scn,0) rather than TO_NUMBER(o.scn). I can't find out why this happens. Obviously, the ">" condition doesn't match when the difference is too small.
AFAIK, ora_rowscn is a NUMBER while my "scn" column is a NUMBER(12) (which should be sufficient to store my DB or remote DB's SCN).

I have an Oracle Package with a procedure in which
package with a procedure in which there is a truncate partition, ALTER TABLE table_name TRUNCATE partition_name DROP STORAGE and the all is run with an EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'alter table ...' .
The point is that the procedure in the package is started from another DB via DB Link (schema USER1) and doesn't work because of lack of privileges.
Instead, if the same procedure is started as a procedure, standalone, not in the package but from the same user (USER1) it works perfectly.
Don't understand why and which privileges must give to the user to run the procedure from inside the package.

I have two tablespace a and a_idx , a is comtaining all tables data and it fixed size is 19000MB and b containing all the index associated with these tables and its size also 19000MB.
but this is am testing database, and we need some space on my unix machine for this i truncate all tables from a tablespace a
and resize the tablespace a with size 1000M with no error.
but as per my understanding after truncating all tables from tablespace a its also release space from tablespace b but its not hapening.
so my questin is how can i reize tablespace B using alter database datafile 'full path of dbf file' resize 1000M.
