I have *different* logic for match=1
and for match > 1 , so FOUND is not a
solution as manual says.
There is a special variable named FOUND of type boolean.
FOUND starts out false within each PL/pgSQL function.
It is set by each of the following types of statements:
Section 19.5.5

Even this does not solve my problem.
See my actual code and the output.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION general.copy_accounts() returns integer AS

RESULTS BELOW:

INFO: matched = 1
INFO: matched = 3
Note that matched was 3 but in first place it did not come.
