I want to create and update two tables in a function such as below, but using parameters as tablename is not allowed and gives an error. Is there any way I could achieve this?
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test ( t1 text,t2 text ) RETURNS numeric AS $$ declare temp1 text; declare temp2 text; begin temp1=t1; temp2=t2; select product, (case when sum(pd) <> 0 then sum(gd)/sum(pd)*100 else 0 end ) as gppp into temp2 from temp1 as dummy group by dummy.product,dummy.totalclaimsgroup,dummy.avgmems,dummy.months;
update temp1 as t set GPPP=(select gppp from temp2 as dummy where dummy.product=t.product),
end $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql
---------------------- ERROR: syntax error at or near "$1" LINE 1: ...en sum(gd)/sum(pd)*100 else 0 end ) as gppp from $1 as dum... ^ QUERY: select product, (case when sum(pd) <> 0 then sum(gd)/sum(pd)*100 else 0 end ) as gppp from $1 as dummy group by dummy.product,dummy.totalclaimsgroup,dummy.avgmems,dummy.months CONTEXT: SQL statement in PL/PgSQL function "test" near line 10
