Columns of Numeric Physical Type

Columns of a numeric physical type must have the properties Precision and Scale set, for example: Number (22, 7), or Number (10, 0). The first value (22 and 10, in these examples) represents the precision, which is the total length of the column including the decimal places. The second number (7 and 0, in these examples) represents the scale, which are the decimal places after the decimal point. Siebel Tools sets the Length property to 22 by default; Length is a required column in Siebel Tools, but this property does not play any role in columns of a numeric physical type.
