GitHub user sivaguru-rajasekaran added a comment to the discussion: Oracle 
Table Input with variables (${LAST_RUN_TS}, ${LAST_RUN_ID}) failing in Apache 
Hop

Query used:
SELECT
    FROM_TS,
    TO_TS
FROM ETL_TABLE_CONTROL
WHERE table_name = 'XXSIFY_CPQ_ORDER_DETAILS_UDM';

Problem:

FROM_TS and TO_TS are defined as TIMESTAMP columns.

When queried directly as TIMESTAMP, values do not appear in preview / result 
set in Table input.

However, when I explicitly cast them to STRING (or VARCHAR), the values show 
correctly in the preview.

Example:

SELECT
    CAST(FROM_TS AS STRING),
    CAST(TO_TS AS STRING)
FROM ETL_TABLE_CONTROL
WHERE table_name = 'XXSIFY_CPQ_ORDER_DETAILS_UDM';


Questions:

Is this a known issue with timestamp handling in preview/result rendering?

Could this be related to timezone, session settings, or internal conversion 
factors?

Is there a recommended way to handle TIMESTAMP columns in control tables to 
avoid this behavior?

Any guidance or workaround would be appreciated.
