I have an error being thrown by SQL Server Management Studio when running this code:
declare @percentage numeric(3,2) set @percentage = cast(15 as numeric(3,2)) but when I change numeric declaration to
declare @percentage numeric(4,2) set @percentage = cast(15 as numeric(4,2)) everything goes fine.
Is there a limitation for numeric data type?

1. "Arithmetic overflow error converting IDENTITY to data type int" error means the value of IDENTITY is overflowing range of data type of that particular column. 2. Check the current value of Identity.
The solution to avoid this arithmetic overflow error is to change the data type from INT to BIGINT or DECIMAL(11,0) for example.
The error "Arithmetic overflow error converting IDENTITY to data type int" comes when IDENTITY value is inserted into a column of data type int, but the value is out-of-range.
An arithmetic overflow is the result of a calculation that exceeds the memory space designated to hold it. For example, a divide-by-zero yields a much larger result.
Numeric defines the TOTAL number of digits, and then the number after the decimal.
A numeric(3,2) can only hold up to 9.99.
