Description:
As per documentation converting a money value to numeric does not lose
precision. In general that is the case:
select '8547758.07'::money, '8547758.07'::money::numeric(30,2);
money |numeric |
-------------|----------|
$8,547,758.07|8547758.07|
During my testing I found unexpected results for the min and max value of
the money type.
select '-92233720368547758.08'::money,
'-92233720368547758.08'::money::numeric(30,2);
money |numeric |
---------------------------|---------------------|
-$92,233,720,368,547,758.08|-92233720368547758.00|
Note that the cent value is gone after converting to numeric.
Same issue for the max value:
money |numeric |
--------------------------|--------------------|
$92,233,720,368,547,758.07|92233720368547758.00|
Best Wishes
