Mike TroutData Migrator VSAM to SQL issues/Overflow error
running 7.6.4
VSAM field:
04 BPW-EMP-PCT PIC 9(03)V999 COMP-3.
value is 37.685
in DM VSAM Master file def:
FIELDNAME=BPW_EMP_PCT, ALIAS=E49, USAGE=P7.3, ACTUAL=P4, $
I used a define field due to overflow error:
DEFINE BPW_EMP_PCT_X/A9 = EDIT(BPW_EMP_PCT, '$9999999');$
in EDA Master file:
FIELDNAME=BPW_EMP_PCT, ALIAS=BPW_EMP_PCT, USAGE=P7.3, ACTUAL=P4, $
FIELDNAME=BPW_EMP_PCT_X, ALIAS=BPW_EMP_PCT_X, USAGE=A9, ACTUAL=A9, $
Target SQL Server is set up as a float field, displays D20.2 in Datamigrator
FIELDNAME=EMPLOYERPERCENTAGE, ALIAS=EmployerPercentage, USAGE=D20.2, ACTUAL=D8,
MISSING=ON, $
when I run the Dataflow, end result is 37.00, when it should be 37.685
Any help would be much appreciated. IBI has been looking at it since Monday and no resolution as of yet.
Thanks.

PBrightwellThe problem is that you used EDIT to convert your field. Change your define to:
DEFINE BPW_EMP_PCT_D/D7.3=BPW_EMP_PCT;
DEFINE BPW_EMP_PCT_X/A9=FTOA(BPW_EMP_PCT_D,'D7.3','A9');

Mike TroutThanks Pat, I was able to use the _D field and it worked.
