Unable to figure out why this query results 0 records although there are records in the one table which doesnt exist in another table.
SELECT count(*)
FROM advance.primary_gift t
WHERE t.prim_gift_receipt_number NOT IN
(SELECT receipt_number
FROM advance.gift_tender_type)---0 records
SELECT *
FROM advance.primary_gift t where prim_gift_receipt_number in (0001088058,0001046163,0001046164,0001046170,0001046171)---5 records
SELECT *
FROM advance.gift_tender_type t where receipt_number=0001088058 in ('0001088058','0001046163','0001046164','0001046170','0001046171')---0 records |

Quote:the only difference is one is nullable and other is not.
But not the queries you show us:
0001088058,0001046163,0001046164,0001046170,0001046171
and
'0001088058','0001046163','0001046164','0001046170','0001046171'
One is numbers the other one is strings
When you convert number 0001088058 to string you have '1088058' not '0001088058'.
In the end, put a test case so we can reproduce what you have.
