Hello Rick, Many thanks for your response. I can surely share the Java Code of the UDF. Here is the code: //************** START OF FUNCTION CODE ***************************** public static BigDecimal getInvoiceTotal(int invoiceNumber) throws SQLException { Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:default:connection"); BigDecimal invoiceTotal = getItemsTotal(connection, invoiceNumber); String sql = "SELECT discount, additionalcharge FROM invoices " + "WHERE id = " + invoiceNumber; try (Statement statement = connection.createStatement()) { try (ResultSet result = statement.executeQuery(sql)) { if (result.next()) { BigDecimal amount = result.getBigDecimal(1); //discount if (!result.wasNull()) { invoiceTotal = invoiceTotal.subtract(amount); } amount = result.getBigDecimal(2); // additional charge if (!result.wasNull()) { invoiceTotal = invoiceTotal.add(amount); } } } } return invoiceTotal; } private static BigDecimal getItemsTotal(Connection connection, int invoiceNumber) throws SQLException { String sql = "SELECT rate * quantity FROM invoice_items WHERE " + "invoice_id = " + invoiceNumber; BigDecimal total = BigDecimal.ZERO; try (Statement statement = connection.createStatement()) { try (ResultSet result = statement.executeQuery(sql)) { BigDecimal amount = null; while (result.next()) { amount = result.getBigDecimal(1).setScale(2, RoundingMode.HALF_UP); total = total.add(amount); } } } return total; } //**************END OF FUNCTION CODE *****************************
Should you require any other info, kindly let me know.

Could you share the Java code which implements getInvoiceTotal()? The following code works for me (I changed your function declaration to return a DECIMAL with a non-zero scale). Here is my version of the function... public class SampleUDF { public static BigDecimal getInvoiceTotal(int invoiceNumber) throws SQLException { Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:default:connection"); try (PreparedStatement ps = conn.prepareStatement("select total from invoices where invoiceNumber = ?")) { ps.setInt(1, invoiceNumber); try (ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery()) { if (rs.next()) { return rs.getBigDecimal(1); } else { return null; } } } } } ...and here is a script which invokes it... connect 'jdbc:derby:memory:db;create=true'; create table invoices(invoiceNumber int primary key, total decimal(10,2)); insert into invoices values (1, 100.30), (2, 200.60); CREATE FUNCTION invoice_total ( invoiceNumber int ) RETURNS DECIMAL(10,2) LANGUAGE JAVA PARAMETER STYLE JAVA READS SQL DATA EXTERNAL NAME 'SampleUDF.getInvoiceTotal'; values invoice_total(1); Hope this helps, -Rick
