Database Binary fields are a strange beast. They are not Integers and
they can contain decimal positions. The allocated storage is a
function of the number of digits and they don't support the full
(expected) range of normal integers.
A Binary field with between 1 and 4 digits will occupy 2 bytes of
storage. Between 5 and 9 will occupy 4 bytes of storage, between 10
and 18 will occupy 8 bytes of storage.
TID is defined as 2 digits therefore it will occupy 2 bytes with a
maximum value of 9,999
PHN_OR_PIN is defined as 10 digits therefore it will occupy 8 bytes
with a maximum value of 999,999,999,999,999,999
