I have a database table which has four columns and two of the columns are INT. The two INT columns' rows are sometimes empty.
When I try to cast them as DECIMAL(18,3) and then use the Median function I am getting the Error: An unknown character string translation was requested.
 

I am writing a PT script which loads from an oracle source to Teradata.
PROBLEM_COL in Oracle is defined as DECIMAL(10,0). In Teradata PROBLEM_COL is defined as Integer.
The load fails, and all rows are inserted into the error table.
Reviewing the logs I believe I see the problem:

Why does my percentage have no values after the decimal?

Hello experts,

I have the following 2 select statements, which produce 2 different results although they should return the same result

returns 1.045.417,15000000
2) sel 3155500.0000 * 1045259.3800 / 3155500.0000
returns 1.045.259,38000000
