Description:

Hi Team,

I am trying to use RTIM function on a String (Column data) to remove some
character/string from the right end.

Example -
select column_name, RTRIM(column_name, '-1') from table_name;
column_name | rtrim
-----------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
test-2020_03_01-2020_03_31-1 | test-2020_03_01-2020_03_3
test-2019_02_01-2019_02_28-1 | test-2019_02_01-2019_02_28
test-2019_04_01-2019_04_30-1 | test-2019_04_01-2019_04_30

In case of the first string, RTRIM is removing "1-1" instead of "-1".
I expect it to remove "-1" as it did in other strings.

Please let me know if you need any further information.

Thanks,
Chetan
