MERGE Purpose

Use the MERGE statement to select rows from one or more sources for update or insertion into a table or view. You can specify conditions to determine whether to update or insert into the target table or view.

This statement is a convenient way to combine multiple operations. It lets you avoid multiple INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE DML statements.

MERGE is a deterministic statement. You cannot update the same row of the target table multiple times in the same MERGE statement.

Note:

In previous releases of Oracle Database, when you created an Oracle Virtual Private Database policy on an application that included the MERGE INTO statement, the MERGE INTO statement would be prevented with an ORA-28132: Merge into syntax does not support security policies error, due to the presence of the Virtual Private Database policy. Beginning with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2), you can create policies on applications that include MERGE INTO operations. To do so, in the DBMS_RLS.ADD_POLICY statement_types parameter, include the INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements, or just omit the statement_types parameter altogether. Refer to Oracle Database Security Guide for more information on enforcing policies on specific SQL statement types.
Prerequisites

You must have the INSERT and UPDATE object privileges on the target table and the SELECT object privilege on the source table. To specify the DELETE clause of the merge_update_clause, you must also have the DELETE object privilege on the target table.

Semantics

INTO Clause

Use the INTO clause to specify the target table or view you are updating or inserting into. In order to merge data into a view, the view must be updatable. Refer to "Notes on Updatable Views" for more information.

USING Clause

Use the USING clause to specify the source of the data to be updated or inserted. The source can be a table, view, or the result of a subquery.

ON Clause

Use the ON clause to specify the condition upon which the MERGE operation either updates or inserts. For each row in the target table for which the search condition is true, Oracle Database updates the row with corresponding data from the source table. If the condition is not true for any rows, then the database inserts into the target table based on the corresponding source table row.

Restrictions on the ON Clause

In previous releases of Oracle Database, when you created an Oracle Virtual Private Database policy on an application that included the MERGE INTO statement, the MERGE INTO statement would be prevented with an ORA-28132: Merge into syntax does not support security policies error, due to the presence of the Virtual Private Database policy. Beginning with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2), you can create policies on applications that include MERGE INTO operations. To do so, in the DBMS_RLS.ADD_POLICY statement_types parameter, include the INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements, or just omit the statement_types parameter altogether. Refer to Oracle Database Security Guide for more information on enforcing policies on specific SQL statement types.

merge_update_clause
The merge_update_clause specifies the new column values of the target table. Oracle performs this update if the condition of the ON clause is true. If the update clause is executed, then all update triggers defined on the target table are activated.

Specify the where_clause if you want the database to execute the update operation only if the specified condition is true. The condition can refer to either the data source or the target table. If the condition is not true, then the database skips the update operation when merging the row into the table.

Specify the DELETE where_clause to clean up data in a table while populating or updating it. The only rows affected by this clause are those rows in the destination table that are updated by the merge operation. The DELETE WHERE condition evaluates the updated value, not the original value that was evaluated by the UPDATE SET ... WHERE condition. If a row of the destination table meets the DELETE condition but is not included in the join defined by the ON clause, then it is not deleted. Any delete triggers defined on the target table will be activated for each row deletion.

You can specify this clause by itself or with the merge_insert_clause. If you specify both, then they can be in either order.

Restrictions on the merge_update_clause This clause is subject to the following restrictions:

•You cannot update a column that is referenced in the ON condition clause.

•You cannot specify DEFAULT when updating a view.

merge_insert_clause
The merge_insert_clause specifies values to insert into the column of the target table if the condition of the ON clause is false. If the insert clause is executed, then all insert triggers defined on the target table are activated. If you omit the column list after the INSERT keyword, then the number of columns in the target table must match the number of values in the VALUES clause.

To insert all of the source rows into the table, you can use a constant filter predicate in the ON clause condition. An example of a constant filter predicate is ON (0=1). Oracle Database recognizes such a predicate and makes an unconditional insert of all source rows into the table. This approach is different from omitting the merge_update_clause. In that case, the database still must perform a join. With constant filter predicate, no join is performed.

Specify the where_clause if you want Oracle Database to execute the insert operation only if the specified condition is true. The condition can refer only to the data source table. Oracle Database skips the insert operation for all rows for which the condition is not true.

You can specify this clause by itself or with the merge_update_clause. If you specify both, then they can be in either order.

Restriction on Merging into a View You cannot specify DEFAULT when updating a view.

error_logging_clause
The error_logging_clause has the same behavior in a MERGE statement as in an INSERT statement. Refer to the INSERT statement error_logging_clause for more information.

Examples

Merging into a Table: Example The following example uses the bonuses table in the sample schema oe with a default bonus of 100. It then inserts into the bonuses table all employees who made sales, based on the sales_rep_id column of the oe.orders table. Finally, the human resources manager decides that employees with a salary of $8000 or less should receive a bonus. Those who have not made sales get a bonus of 1% of their salary. Those who already made sales get an increase in their bonus equal to 1% of their salary. The MERGE statement implements these changes in one step:

CREATE TABLE bonuses (employee_id NUMBER, bonus NUMBER DEFAULT 100);

INSERT INTO bonuses(employee_id)
<wbr><wbr> (SELECT e.employee_id FROM employees e, orders o<br><wbr><wbr> WHERE e.employee_id = o.sales_rep_id<br><wbr><wbr> GROUP BY e.employee_id);<br><br> SELECT * FROM bonuses ORDER BY employee_id;<br><br> EMPLOYEE_ID<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> BONUS<br> ----------- ----------<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 153<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 154<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 155<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 156<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 158<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 159<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 160<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 161<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 163<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 100<br><br> MERGE INTO bonuses D<br><wbr><wbr> USING (SELECT employee_id, salary, department_id FROM employees<br><wbr><wbr> WHERE department_id = 80) S<br><wbr><wbr> ON (D.employee_id = S.employee_id)<br><wbr><wbr> WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE SET D.bonus = D.bonus + S.salary*.01<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> DELETE WHERE (S.salary &gt; 8000)<br><wbr><wbr> WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN INSERT (D.employee_id, D.bonus)<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> VALUES (S.employee_id, S.salary*.01)<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> WHERE (S.salary &lt;= 8000);<br><br> SELECT * FROM bonuses ORDER BY employee_id;<br><br> EMPLOYEE_ID<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> BONUS<br> ----------- ----------<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 153<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 180<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 154<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 175<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 155<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 170<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 159<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 180<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 160<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 175<br><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 161<wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr><wbr> 170<br></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr></wbr>
