Subj:   Re: View with Default and Null values

  My problem is why the last SQL does not return any rows. My hypothesis is that since the view has a default defined, it assumes this field will have default value for all rows in the join, even though this is a left join and NOT ALL rows may have a match. Regardless, I think this is not ideal. Can the members confirm if this is not an acceptable behavior or a bug? Any workarounds (short of not using defaults in the view?)  


AFAIK this is a known bug and has been fixe some time ago.

What's your Teradata version?
