Symptoms

Using large numbers (> 15 signs) Oracle BI is using a scientific format so the number is converted and rounded.

Here is an example to illustrate the behaviour:

• Create a simple report using sampleapp with the following 2 columns:
  • "Products"."P0  Product Number"
  • "Products"."P1  Product"
• Then add a filter as below:
  • "Products"."P0  Product Number" = 123456789012345678901234567890123445
• The filter condition appears as below in the nqquery.log :
  • T42409.Prod_Key = 1.23456789012346E+035
