| According to your sample data, 20110621 is just a date. Where does the time portion come from? |

SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(16),CAST('20110621' AS DATETIME),127)I have the same question as Lamprey. Since the source data does not have the time portion, how do you get a time portion into there? The query I posted simply assumes the time is midnight - i.e., 00:00 |

I only meant that as an example. If your data is in a table use it like this:SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(16),CAST(YourYYYYMMDDDateColumn AS DATETIME),127)
FROM YourTable; |

That means you have bad data. That is why you should always use proper data types. You can try the ISDATE function to see if any of the date values are not convertable.
What version of SQL Server are you using? If 2012 there are some other parsing functions that may work better an ISDATE. |

See which rows are giving you problems using this query. If it returns any rows at all, inspect the [OTLT_FRST_POST_DT] column in those rows.SELECT
*
FROM
#emax
inner join [FDMS].[dbo].[stg_EMAXS_Merchant] ON right(#emax.MID_Internal,9) = right([FDMS].[dbo].[stg_EMAXS_Merchant].OTLT_ACCT_ID,9)
WHERE ISDATE(([OTLT_FRST_POST_DT] ) = 0; |
