Def - Data Type Numeric

Numeric data types, within the File Imports, are those that are used for numbers that can contain decimal values. The limits are specified in terms of both precision (# of digits to the left of the decimal) and scale (# of digits to the right of the decimal). For example, a numeric field that allows a value up to 4 digits long with 5 decimal places would be displayed as Numeric(4,5).
