while importing the flat file, the flat file wizard helps in configuring the properties of the file so that select the numeric column and just enter the precision value and the scale. precision includes the scale for example if the number is 98888.654, enter precision as 8 and scale as 3 and width as 10 for fixed width flat file

you can handle that by simply using the source analyzer window and then go to the ports of that flat file representations and changing the precision and scales.

hi,

while importing flat file definetion just specify the scale for a neumaric data type. in the mapping, the flat file source supports only number datatype(no decimal and integer). In the SQ associated with that source will have a data type as decimal for that number port of the source.

source ->number datatype port ->SQ -> decimal datatype.Integer is not supported. hence decimal is taken care.
