Compressing DATE datatype Topic by mzs 5 days ago

I am building a new table and my understanding is, since Terdata stores DATE datatype as integer, I need to specify a respective integer value in COMPRESS clause, i.e. to store compressed value of '2099-01-01', I would need to have COMPRESS 1990101 when defining column.  Please let me know if this is correct.
Thank you,
