creating a view
I have to create a view to be used as a export. The target has columns not contained in the source. How do I reference and define the space without the column name? NOTE -- Means no column_name in table.
select RPAD(REC,2,'I') REC,
RPAD(SUPP,8,' ')SUPP,
RPAD(INVOICE,12,' ') INVOICE,
TO_CHAR(IDATE, 'MM/DD/RR') IDATE,
TO_CHAR(DDUE, 'MM/DD/RR') DDUE,
RPAD(ICAMNT,12,' ') ICAMNT,
--RPAD(NVL(SEP_CHK_CODE,1,
RPAD(NVL(OREF,15,' ') OREF,
RPAD(ICHRG,12,' ') ICHRG
RPAD(NVL(NUM,'0'),68,' '),
-- RPAD(NVL(IMPTFR,'M'),11,' ')
from <table_name>;
