> When querying HANA using hana translator, there is an inconsistency in handling SUBSTRING with similar parameters:
> {code:sql}
> SELECT SUBSTRING('sth',20,1) FROM tablename
> {code}
> That is, when the starting offset supplied to SUBSTRING function is greater than the length of the string value, Teiid returns NULL in this case. 
> But when I run:
> {code:sql}
> SELECT SUBSTRING(STRINGNUM,20,1) FROM bqt1.smalla
> {code}
> (it is pushed to HANA and STRINGNUM column contains strings of length <=2)
> I get empty strings instead of NULL values, which is default in Teiid.
> This inconsistency is caused by different handling of such situation on HANA's side.
