Any ideas on why this would error out?  Is it the nulls?

create table tsteil.sub_duration_duration as (
select NULL provider, a.user_id, a.subscription_id, a.game_code,
a.timestamp, to_number(decode(a.duration, '14D', 14, '02D', 2, '40D', 40,
'05D', 5, '10D', 10, '21D', 21, '30D', 30, '60D', 60, '90D', 90, '01M',
30, '03M', 60, '06M', 90, '12M', 360, '24M', 720, '07D', 7, '15D', 15,
'01D', 1, '00D', 0, 'ERROR')) duration from tsteil.sub_duration_orders a
UNION ALL select NULL provider, b.user_id, b.subscription_id, b.game_code,
