Hi All,

Please note I need to find way to change customized field type int to decimal. Int type doesn’t allow to enter decimal values. I have tried by changing original attribute but it’s not saving either.

Here is an example @darshanaabeyrathne63 

 

ALTER TABLE table_name
ADD column_name datatype;

 

Ex: 

ALTER TABLE SOOrder
ADD UsrTestFiele decimal(19,6);

    @darshanaabeyrathne63  Please delete this DAC field and create the DAC field again with the same name with Decimal from the DATA ACCESS section.

    If this package is already deployed in any instance then again you need to write a Alter script to modify the Type in the database in the Database scripts section.

      @Naveen Boga  Thank you for update! But after changing the field type below error message occurs? I have publish this project using option publish with cleanup as well.

      Have you deployed the script to change the data type in the database? @darshanaabeyrathne63
