I have an issue where the database query for some M code is producing a known issue from the database. This is being done in a dataflow against DB2. The M code is as follows:
each Text.End([ART_HIER_LEV7_CODE], Number.From(Text.Length([ART_HIER_LEV7_CODE]) - 6))
Which works perfectly well in desktop. This converts to the following SQL:
right("_"."ART_HIER_LEV7_CODE", length("_"."ART_HIER_LEV7_CODE") - 6) as "Super Product Category Code"
However there is an issue with some DB2 databases where the substring numeric argument must be explicitly cast as INT:

I think the DB2 connector could be updated to include this so all DB2 databases are covered. Currently I cannot use substring functions in Dataflows against DB2 due to this.
