On my side  this error came from the data type  INT  in the Null values column  The error is resolved by just changing the data a type to varchar

Change SUM billableDuration  AS NumSecondsDelivered to  sum cast billableDuration as bigint    or   sum cast billableDuration as numeric 12  0    according to your need   The resultant type of of Sum expression is the same as the data type used  It throws error at time of overflow  So casting the column to larger capacity data type and then using Sum operation works fine

Is the problem with SUM billableDuration   To find out  try commenting out that line and see if it works    It could be that the sum is exceeding the maximum int  If so  try replacing it with SUM CAST billableDuration AS BIGINT

SELECT                               DATEPART YEAR  dateTimeStamp  AS  Year                                 DATEPART MONTH  dateTimeStamp  AS  Month                                 COUNT    AS NumStreams                                platform  AS  Platform                              deliverableName AS  Deliverable Name                             SUM billableDuration  AS NumSecondsDelivered   Assuming that your quoted text is the exact text  one of these columns can t do the mathematical calculations that you want   Double click on the error and it will highlight the line that s causing the problems  if it s different than what s posted  it may not be up there   I tested your code with the variables and there was no problem  meaning that one of these columns  which we don t know more specific information about  is creating this error   One of your expressions needs to be casted converted to an int in order for this to go through  which is the meaning of Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int

Very simple   Use COUNT BIG    AS NumStreams
