How to convert YYYYMMDD INT to DATETIME in SQL Server? Example

 You can convert it directly with the CONVERT function by using the style 112 = ISO = yyyymmdd:

DECLARE @date int;

SET @date = 20220701



SELECT CONVERT(datetime, CONVERT(varchar(8), @date), 112)

SELECT CONVERT(datetime, '20070701', 112)

You can get this error Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime.
that error came because we were comparing a datetime with int without converting later to datetime.

like
X.PriceDt < A.PrimaryDate

this will fix this
X.PriceDt < CONVERT(datetime, CONVERT(varchar(8), A.PrimaryDate), 112))


How to solve Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime


Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime.

SELECT CONVERT(datetime, 23232322, 112)


Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime.

SELECT CONVERT(datetime, '23232322', 112)

 
The conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value.

SELECT CONVERT(datetime, '', 112)
1900-01-01 00:00:00.000


SELECT CONVERT(datetime, NULL, 112)
NULL


SELECT CONVERT(datetime, '-9999', 112)

The conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value.

"Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime." also come when we try to convert a integer thinking its string

SELECT * from TABLE where DATE >= 20140101 < 20150101


here I have forgotten single quotes which results in this error.
