Hi All,
Below I am trying to concatenate the string 'Prospective Targeted' with field INT_YEAR. When I run the program I get error '
ERROR: Concatenation (||) requires character operands.'
SELECT
MEMBER_HCID
,MAX(CASE WHEN T2.HC_ID IS NOT NULL THEN 'Prospective Targeted'||''|| INT_YEAR ELSE 'NOT TARGETED' END) AS Prospective_Target
Apparently your year variable is numeric.
Try
catx(' ','Prospective Targeted',INT_YEAR )
instead.
The concatenation functions generally have better behavior than || concatenation operator.
