Problems with TIMESTAMP Field from SQL Server

PinnocchioOct 26 2012 — edited Oct 28 2012
OBIEE 11g

Hi All,

I want to convert data into OBIEE that is coming from a TIMESTAMP field in SQL Server Database. So in SQL Server field has data like '9/20/2012 12:05:08 AM'. I have first changed the datatype in physical layer to DATETIME and then in BMM I do a CAST(<DATE_FIELD> AS DATE). On the frontend when I use this column the error I get back is [nQSError: 59030] Illegal data type conversion from source type: VARBINARY to target type: TIMESTAMP. (HY000). Does anyone know a workaround or solution.

Thanks in Advance!
