Hello all,

I have encountered an error upon using RETURNING clause on UPDATE statement. Please find the corresponding block of code that produces the error down below:

UPDATE billable_accounts
SET npmt = 5189
WHERE ba_number='005086708'
RETURNING cust_seq_id INTO v_cust_id;

Also, note the following information for the above statement:

billable_accounts: View constructed by 3 tables (lets say a, b, c)
npmt: NUMBER(22) - from table a
cust_seq_id: NUMBER(18) - from table b
ba_number: VARCHAR2(71 Byte) - from table c

cust_seq_id gets the value of npmt column (5189 - that is updated through the statement). However, cust_seq_id value should be 456668 instead of 5189.

Also, you may find attached a screenshot that proves the above. Has anyone else faced something similar to this?

Thank you,
Ermo.

We would need to see the view definition, along with the code of any triggers on either the underlying tables or the view itself, to have any chance of working out what is going on.

There is only the view definition.
Is there any trigger?
What are the definition of the tables?

Note that many of us can't or don't want to download files so post this inline inside the post and formatted (see How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read).
