Hello Experts,

Would you please help me why I can't call the function to delete table and insert data from another table?  
Simple deletion and insert from one to other are fine 

DELETE FROM bnft_hist_actn_ldim;

INSERT INTO bnft_hist_actn_ldim 
SELECT stg.bnft_hist_actn_id, stg.bnft_hist_actn_src_cd, stg.bnft_hist_actn_desc, stg.mig_filename
FROM stg_bnft_hist_actn_ldim stg;

-----
but when I put in the stored function, it's not working.

My stored function script is:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION pr_mig_stg_bnft_hist_actn_ldim(OUT v_Ret integer)
AS $$

DECLARE 
        v_ErrorCode             varchar(32);
        v_ErrorMsg              varchar(512);
        v_Module                varchar(32) = 'pr_mig_stg_bnft_hist_actn_ldim';
        
BEGIN

    DELETE FROM bnft_hist_actn_ldim;

    INSERT INTO bnft_hist_actn_ldim 
    SELECT stg.bnft_hist_actn_id, stg.bnft_hist_actn_src_cd, stg.bnft_hist_actn_desc,          stg.mig_filename
    FROM stg_bnft_hist_actn_ldim stg;

RETURN NEW;

    v_Ret := SQLSTATE;

exception   
   when others then
v_ErrorCode := SQLSTATE;
        v_ErrorMsg  := SQLERRM;
        v_Ret       := v_ErrorCode;


PERFORM pr_write_error_log ();  

END;
$$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

SELECT pr_mig_bnft_hist_actn_ldim();

execute the store funtion no error but two tables are the same and didn't delete and/or insert any from one to other;

thank you for looking into it.

v/r,
