Re: Conversion character to integer

Hi Stefan,

Here is the approach i followed (HANA revision 46).

I created a table with column YEAR with data type NVARCHAR which has numeric value.

In CE_PROJECTION I included this YEAR field and using CE_CALC function I converted NVARCHAR YEAR column to INTEGER YEAR1 attribute.

In the output, I not included the YEAR but included YEAR1. In the script always code the column in CE_PROJECTION which you use in CE_CALC.  

This is the script:

/********* Begin Procedure Script ************/

BEGIN

     T_CE_FUN = CE_COLUMN_TABLE(CE_FUN);

            var_out = CE_PROJECTION(:T_CE_FUN, [PRODUCT_ID

                                              , PRODUCT_NAME

                                              , SALES

                                              , "YEAR"

                                              , CE_CALC( '("YEAR")', integer) AS "YEAR1"

                                              ]);

END /********* End Procedure Script ************/

The below screenshot shows the table definition, data, sqlscript, and output of Calculation view.

Regards
