SQL Server Error Message: Syntax error converting the varchar value to a column of data type int
Error Message:
Server: Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Syntax error converting the varchar value to a column of data type int.
Causes:
There are many ways this error may be encountered but the common reason is that you are trying to convert, either implicitly or explicitly, a varchar value to an int data type and the varchar value cannot be converted to an int data type. You may have a varchar column that may have integer values on most records but where some have non-integer values.
One other common reason why this is encountered is when creating a dynamic SQL statement and the query involves combining a varchar variable with an integer variable.

“We recently installed a new application which ran on Oracle but was unsure how to correctly license the environment. As a result, we engaged with Xynomix to advise on how best to do so. Xynomix ran an Independent Oracle License Review, which gave us full visibility on our license compliance. They highlighted the restrictions around various license types, whilst also detailing how to avoid any pitfalls moving forward.”
