    • DATETIME2

    • DECIMAL (precision, scale)

      precision must be 38

      scale must be a value from 0 through 7

SQL stored procedures that use the following syntax can be used as a Business Rule action

CREATE PROCEDURE [usr].[YourAction]  
       (         
            @MemberIdList mdm.[MemberId] READONLY,  
            @ModelName NVARCHAR(MAX),  
            @VersionName NVARCHAR(MAX),  
            @EntityName NVARCHAR(MAX),  
            @BusinessRuleName NVARCHAR(MAX)  
        )    
      AS BEGIN    
       ...     
       END
