Solution 1

Is your database Oracle?

when you declare a variable as NUMBER(p,s), it signifies the number having precision p and scale s.

So number(20,6) denotes that you can store a number like 9999999999999.999999

This is probably not what you want? You probably want number(27, 0) - so 27 length with no numbers after the decimal

Read up on Precision and Scale.
