Receiving a message 'can not convert between unicode and non unicode string data types. I'm using this command to create the field. Destination is a nvarchar.
'IPSD' + RIGHT ('000000' + CAST(Staff_ID AS nvarchar(6)), 6)

Try one of these:
'IPSD' + RIGHT ('000000' + CAST(Staff_ID AS varchar(6)), 6)
N'IPSD' + RIGHT (N'000000' + CAST(Staff_ID AS nvarchar(6)), 6)

try using a derived column task or data conversion and do the casting inside it

if derived column use

(DT_WSTR,6) your column name
