For what it is worth, you should consider using a numeric datatype instead of float. It appears this is dealing with money and float is not an exact numeric datatype.or even int, for bill-qty (unless you can bill for fractional items)
True enough. I was guessing that maybe that column was the total amount billed but the column is certainly ambiguous enough that it doesn't provide much insight. 😉
