Data type precedence (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
When an operator combines expressions of different data types, the data type with the lower precedence is first converted to the data type with the higher precedence. If the conversion isn't a supported implicit conversion, an error is returned. For an operator combining operand expressions having the same data type, the result of the operation has that data type.
SQL Server uses the following precedence order for data types:
- user-defined data types (highest)
- json
- sql_variant
- xml
- datetimeoffset
- datetime2
- datetime
- smalldatetime
- date
- time
- float
- real
- decimal
- money
- smallmoney
- bigint
- int
- smallint
- tinyint
- bit
- ntext
- text
- image
- timestamp
- uniqueidentifier
- nvarchar (including nvarchar(max) )
- nchar
- varchar (including varchar(max) )
- char
- varbinary (including varbinary(max) )
- binary (lowest)
