ORA-34691

(MXXEQ00A) %a value number number workspace object
The value %1p is greater than the specified precision (%2p, %3p) for %4p.

Cause

A numeric value was entered that exceeded the precision defined for this object. For example, for an object defined to be NUMBER(3,2), the precision or the maximum number of significant decimal digits is 3. The scale or the number of digits from the decimal point to the least significant digit is 2. In this case, a value of 123.89 will cause the error because the precision allows a maximum of 3 digits and 2 of them must be to the right of the decimal point. A value of 3.89 will not cause the error.


Action

Enter a value that complies with the precision defined for the object.
