SUBSTRING in OBIEE

1014125Jun 18 2013 — edited Jun 19 2013

Hi All,

I am trying to use SUBSTRING IN OBIEE front end..

My Scenario is I have a column X for which the max lengthof that column is 8 and some are less than8..

So what I did was I concatenated all the numbers with zero's taking 2 as the min length.

Ex : Orginal numbers : 157 , 12345678

After concatenation : 00000057 , 00000012345678

Now i wanted to use Substring fucntion and get the last 8 numbers, i..e., 12345678 , 00000157

I am trying to use SUBSTRING (Expression, -8, 8)

But this is not working

Any other suggestions,

Thanks
