Hii Expert,
Can any one tell me how to update destination table's additional flag_ind as 'D' when source record get deleted ( Example id 2 is missing in source table.
Can we do it using merge?? What is the best approach in this case?

TABLE_1:

ID SAL
1 500
3 700

TABLE_2:

ID SAL FLAG_IND
1 500
2 600
3 700

RESULT:

TABLE_2:

ID SAL FLAG_IND
1 500
2 600 D
3 700

IF you want to update target table as in when records are deleted on source table then triggers are good idea.

If you want to do it only once (I assume records are already deleted in source table and you just want to update target table just once) then of course single update query suggested by Michel is enough.
