Q:

sql date format picture ends before converting entire input string

-- NOTE: this is only applicable for Oracle and/or PL/SQL

-- Example (let's say you get the error for your date of '2020-09-25 14:18:15')
TO_DATE('2020-09-25 14:18:15', 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS') -- instead of '2020-09-25 14:18:15' only

-- Syntax
TO_DATE('<your-date-time>', '<your-date-time-format>')
