Understanding the Limitations of ISNULL in SQL Subqueries: A Case for Caution When Handling Zero Values.
Understanding the Problem with ISNULL in Subqueries The question at hand revolves around a SQL script that employs a subquery to determine inventory levels of specific items. The subquery returns NULL values, which are then handled using the ISNULL function to set them to zero (0). However, when integrating this result into a calculation involving quantities and balances, issues arise due to how ISNULL interacts with arithmetic operations. Background on ISNULL In SQL Server, ISNULL is used to replace an expression with a specified value if the expression evaluates to NULL.
