SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT (Transact-SQL)

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW) SQL analytics endpoint in Microsoft Fabric Warehouse in Microsoft Fabric

Specifies the level of error reporting generated when rounding in an expression causes a loss of precision.

Transact-SQL syntax conventions

Syntax


SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT { ON | OFF }

Remarks

When SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT is ON, an error is generated after a loss of precision occurs in an expression. If set to OFF, losses of precision don't generate error messages. The result is rounded to the precision of the column or variable storing the result.

Loss of precision occurs when you attempt to store a value with fixed precision in a column or variable with less precision.

If SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT is ON, SET ARITHABORT determines the severity of the generated error. This table shows the effects of these two settings when a loss of precision occurs.

Setting SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT ON SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT OFF
SET ARITHABORT ON Error is generated; no set of results returned. No errors or warnings; result is rounded.
SET ARITHABORT OFF Warning is returned; expression returns NULL. No errors or warnings; result is rounded.

The setting of SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT is set at execute or run time and not at parse time.

SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT must be OFF when you're creating or changing indexes on computed columns or indexed views. If SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT is ON, the following statements on tables with indexes on computed columns or indexed views fail:

  • CREATE
  • UPDATE
  • INSERT
  • DELETE

For more information about required SET option settings with indexed views and indexes on computed columns, see Considerations When You Use the SET Statements.

To view the current setting for this setting, run the following query:

DECLARE @NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT VARCHAR(3) = 'OFF';  
IF ( (8192 & @@OPTIONS) = 8192 ) SET @NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT = 'ON';  
SELECT @NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT AS NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT;

Examples

The following example shows two values that are precise to four decimal places. They get added and stored in a variable that is precise to two decimal places. The expressions demonstrate the effects of the different SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT and SET ARITHABORT settings.

-- SET NOCOUNT to ON,   
-- SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT to ON, and SET ARITHABORT to ON.  
SET NOCOUNT ON;  
PRINT 'SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT ON';  
PRINT 'SET ARITHABORT ON';  
SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT ON;  
SET ARITHABORT ON;  
GO  
DECLARE @result DECIMAL(5, 2),  
   @value_1 DECIMAL(5, 4),   
   @value_2 DECIMAL(5, 4);  
SET @value_1 = 1.1234;  
SET @value_2 = 1.1234 ;  
SELECT @result = @value_1 + @value_2;  
SELECT @result;  
GO  
  
-- SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT to ON and SET ARITHABORT to OFF.  
PRINT 'SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT ON';  
PRINT 'SET ARITHABORT OFF';  
SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT ON;  
SET ARITHABORT OFF;  
GO  
DECLARE @result DECIMAL(5, 2),  
   @value_1 DECIMAL(5, 4),   
   @value_2 DECIMAL(5, 4);  
SET @value_1 = 1.1234;  
SET @value_2 = 1.1234 ;  
SELECT @result = @value_1 + @value_2;  
SELECT @result;  
GO

PRINT 'SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT OFF';

SET @value_2 = 1.1234 ;  
SELECT @result = @value_1 + @value_2;  
SELECT @result;  
GO
