The syntax you have below will cause an error in Oracle.

Oracle version of your statement would be: update account
set (account.expire_dt,
  account.curr_eff_dt,
  account.acct_end_dt) =3D (select temp_savedates.expire_dt,   temp_savedates.curr_eff_dt,
  temp_savedates.acct_end_dt
  from temp_savedates
  where account.acct_num =3D temp_savedates.acct_num) where exists
(select * from temp_savedates
  where account.acct_num =3D temp_savedates.acct_num) ;
