Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements.  Don't forget to post your Oracle version.

See the Forum FAQ:

When I run the UPDATE statement you posted with the sample data you posted, I get this error:

  SET (Work_order_Id,WO_End_Dt,WO_Standard_Rate,WO_OT_Rate,Vendor_id) = (select Work_order_Id,End_Dt,Standard_Rate,CTS_WO_OT_RATE,Vendor_ID from ps_cts_iqn_empl_wo WO1
                                                 *
ERROR at line 2:
ORA-00904: "WO_OT_RATE": invalid identifier

There is a column called CTS_WO_OT_RATE, but not WO_OT_RATE.

Hi @"Frank Kulash", please find the modified query.

Query

UPDATE PS_CT_IQN_ACC_STG stg

   SET (Work_order_Id,End_Dt,Standard_Rate,CTS_WO_OT_Rate,Vendor_id) = (select Work_order_Id,End_Dt,Standard_Rate,CTS_WO_OT_RATE,Vendor_ID from ps_cts_iqn_empl_wo WO1

where WO1.Work_order_Id= (select max(Work_order_Id) from ps_cts_iqn_empl_wo WO where WO.EMPLID = STG.EMPLID

   AND WO.project_id  = STG.project_id  and stg.report_due_date between WO.start_dt and WO.end_dt  ))

I've just run the script you posted, adding a missing ";" to the second create table, and got no errors:

Can you show us where do you get the ORA-01407 error??

Vemula Muni

Hi @L. Fernigrini,  when i am trying to execute below query I am getting that error.

Query

UPDATE PS_CT_IQN_ACC_STG stg

   SET (Work_order_Id,End_Dt,Standard_Rate,CTS_WO_OT_Rate,Vendor_id) = (select Work_order_Id,End_Dt,Standard_Rate,CTS_WO_OT_RATE,Vendor_ID from ps_cts_iqn_empl_wo WO1

   AND WO.project_id  = STG.project_id  and stg.report_due_date between WO.start_dt and WO.end_dt  ))

I hav

L. Fernigrini

that's strange, with the sample data you posted, I'm not getting that error:

pastedImage_0.png

Can you show the entire script and it's output? Please post the entire error message.

Can you tell us full Oracle version (e.g., 11.2.0.4).

Frank Kulash

Hi,

I don't get any error, either.  I suspect you're not running the statements you posted.

What is the difference between this problem and the one you posted earlier today:

Need to alter Update Query

?  The solutions from that problem do what you requested in this problem, too.

Vemula Muni

Hi @"L. Fernigrini",  Could you please insert the below row to replicate the issue.

Insert into PS_CT_IQN_ACC_STG (EMPLID,PROJECT_ID,REPORT_DUE_DATE,WORK_ORDER_ID,END_DT,STANDARD_RATE,CTS_WO_OT_RATE,VENDOR_ID) values ('570716','530',to_date('13-AUG-2019','DD-MON-YYYY'),null,null,null,null,null);

Is the new row in addition to the row that already has emplid='5070716', or instead of it?

Either way, I don't get any error when I run the UPDATE statement in reply #4. 

ORA-01407 occurs when you try to set a NOT NULL column to NULL.  The UPDATE statement you posted in reply #4 does not set any NOT NULL columns.  If you're getting ORA-01407, then either your table or your UPDATE statement is different from what you said.

Still cannot reproduce the error.

Can you post the entire script that gives you error, and the output? And also include the database version. It "may" be some strange bug if you get that error message with the script you provided us.
