    <description>Can you provide a bit more context. Like what OData version, binding, UI5 version. Can you provide code? It's a bit too abstract for me</description>

      <title>Random error Cannot convert data &lt;.&gt; into type &lt;DECIMAL&gt;. Context: Column &lt;&gt;</title>
      <link>https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/random-error-cannot-convert-data-lt-gt-into-type-lt-decimal-gt-context/qaq-p/14134158</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;We are using SAP BODS on&amp;nbsp; an Oracle database. From time to time the same dataflow aborts with the error Cannot convert data &amp;lt;.&amp;gt; into type &amp;lt;DECIMAL&amp;gt;. Context: Column &amp;lt;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp; . Without specification which data or column is affected.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;All mappings on decimal fields&amp;nbsp; in this dataflow are from decimal to decimal or from decimal to integer. All decimals are of the form decimal(n,0) .&amp;nbsp; The underlying Oracle columns are number(38,0). The same dataflow is successful when executed&amp;nbsp; a bit later but on presumably the same data -no transformations are run on this data between abortion and new run.&amp;nbsp; The error message provides the name of&amp;nbsp; the transform which fails and references some Join48 which is probably&amp;nbsp; some execution step of the transform. But we are not able to exactly localize the causing issue.&amp;nbsp; Is there a way to find the&amp;nbsp; information, what object the Join48 is referring to?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
