Limitations of Store Procedure in MS Fabric Warehouse

I am exploring store procedures in MS Fabric Warehouse and notice some functionality is not available. For example return statement and random function. 

Has any one use store procedures in MS Fabric for clients. What issues you have faced in moving from SQL Server to Fabric Warehouse specially store procedures.

I am posting some limitations that I found for my particular case and that people migrating from SQL Server to Fabric Warehouse need to keep in view:

 

1. Nvarchar and DateTime datatype are not available in MS Fabric. Instead we have Varchar and DateTime2.
2. Column names in SQL query in MS Fabric are case sensitive.
3. Trunacte table statement is not supported.
4. Temporary tables are not supported.
