this sql statement had a bad COALESCE, in that it was a numeric field,but
I was replacing it with a blank...
The joy of complex SQL statements. :-)
Platform-agnostic, I sometimes found it challenging to let make the
database to what I want in one go. Then it appeared much easier to me using
temporary tables and do several processing steps. IBM i is even more easy
because you could call external programs as stored procedures. Yet, it is
tempting to unload a task to the database engine at once.
Maybe this helps with future SQL development?
:wq! PoC
