Data Type Definitions and Characteristics

Following are descriptions of the Sybase data types used in the LeasePak database. Note that LeasePak does not use all the Sybase data types.

char

Sybase fixed length character string. Typically used to store short and medium-length string data such as keys, names, addresses, descriptions, four-character codes, and single-character switch values.
Characteristics:

• length - The maximum number of ASCII or ISO-8859-1 characters the string can contain.

datetime

Sybase date and time, containing century, year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and second fraction (to 1/300 second) information.
Characteristics:

• format - The date format for the LeasePak database. For example, format YYYYMMDD is the 4-digit year number followed by the 2-digit month number followed by the 2-digit day number with no intervening punctuation.

double

Sybase numeric data type. Typically used to store percentage, rate, and dollar amount information.
Characteristics:

• precision - The magnitude and fractional granularity together, meaning the maximum number of places available to both the left and right of the decimal point. Use precision minus scale to determine the maximum number of places available to the left of the decimal point.
• scale - The fractional granularity, meaning the number of places available to the right of the decimal point.

integer

Sybase numeric data type. Typically used to store counter and whole number information--term length, payment due day, number of units on lease, number of times delinquent, etc.

timestamp

Sybase data type based on the varbinary data type storing raw binary data. Whenever a table includes a timestamp column, Sybase updates the information in timestamp each time a user inserts or updates a record, preventing multiple-user cross-update data corruption.

text

Sybase expandable character data type. Typically used to store long-length string data such as notebook entries.
