SQL: Problems with Extract

neromerob

Hello to everyone.

I´m writing because I have a problem extracting the last value of a field

the code that i wrote is similar to this one

 

SELECT
,substring(RUT,1,length(RUT)-1) AS TEST_1
RUT
FROM TABLE1

 

the result that i need should look like this

Keep in mind that RUT is INTEGER so i don´t know is that could be a problem.

 

I have to do this First in Database before i even work in the workflow.

 

Regards.

@neromerob @Can you covert the RUT field to char type and try again?

@neromerob, this is how you can do it. As your column is INT datatype you need to convert into STRING which can be done using str function.

select RUT,substring(str(RUT),1,len(str(RUT))-1) as Test_1 from Table_1
