Unhandled rejection SequelizeDatabaseError: Unknown column 'NaN' in 'field list'

Question

I am trying to update a table through sequelize. but I am getting error-Unhandled rejection SequelizeDatabaseError: Unknown column 'NaN' in 'field list' . My code is

db.billingplan.findById(req.params.id).then(result=>{
            result.update({
                'poregisterReference': String(req.body.reference),
                'po_number' : req.body.po_number,
                'billing_milestone': String(req.body.billing_milestone),
                'billing_milestone_probable_date':checkDate(req.body.billing_milestone_probable_date),
                'milestone_blling_amount':req.body.milestone_billing_amount,
                'actual_billing_date': actual_billing_date,
                'bill_number':req.body.bill_number,
                'bill_amount':bill_amount,
                'tax_rate':tax_rate,
                'tds_rate':tds_rate,
                'recovery_date': recovery_date,
                'recovery_amount':recovery_amount ,
                'utr_number': String(req.body.utr_number),
                'bill_amount_with_tax': bill_amount_with_tax,
                'net_recoverable_after_tds': net_recoverable_after_tds ,
                'short_recovery': recovery_amount - net_recoverable_after_tds,
                'recovery_period': dayDiff(recovery_date, actual_billing_date )
            });
        });

I have used this way to update without using where clause but never had this problem, so I am guessing thats not the problem. Can someone tell me what it is that I am doing wrong here. follwing is the stacktrace:

Answer 1

What you should do is to check the values of what you set as FindOptions. I think one of them is NaN. I had the same error.

NOTE i write my options in a variable and then print it.

let options = {
    where: {},
    limit: page?.limit ?? PHONE_LIMITATION,
    attributes: [
      Phone.col.id,
      Phone.col.phone,
      Phone.col.userId,
      Phone.col.createdAt,
      Phone.col.updatedAt,
    ],
    offset: page?.offset ?? 0,
};
console.log(options);
// other stuff

You might want to check how you defined associations of your tables ( hasOne(), belongsTo() etc). I defined unnecessary association somewhere in my code and had a similar problem. This introduces unwanted columns/attributes.
