This section lists the known incompatibilities and constraints against DB2 when using Natural for DB2 to access data from DB2.
Most SQL database systems support packed decimal numbers with a maximal precision of 31 digits and a scale (fractional part of the number) of up to 31 digits. The scale has to be positive and not greater than the precision. Natural allows only a precision of 29 digits and the scale could not be greater than 7.
