Subject: Data Type to store Leading Zero(0)
Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2021 11:13:34 +0000
Message-ID: <c77968e8e35a4e9d8f68c2683ae1b807@kpn.com> (raw)

Hello Experts,

As per business needs we need to store Zero(0) in primary key column of table  with this kind of value -->  07******** with applications written in Java microservices.

We are not able to use numeric data type as it trims the Zero value in leading, but it's also a performance impact if we define varchar in the data type.

Please suggest.

Thanks
