Thread: how to do merge in postgres ("with upsert as" not supported)
hey, guys, I came across a merge statement when I'm trying to convert stored procedures from Mysql to Postgres:
merge into db.ChargePeriod d
using (
select ba.ClientID
, ba.BillingAccountID
, bs.BillingScheduleID
, @CodeWithholdD as WithholdTypeID
from db.ClientPartyIDConfiguration cpc
join db.BillingAccount ba
on ba.Deleted = 0
and ba.ClientID = cpc.ClientID
and ba.PartyID = cpc.PartyID
and convert(date,getdate()) between ba.EffectiveDate and ba.ExpireDate
join db.BillingSchedule bs
on bs.Deleted = 0
and bs.ClientID = ba.ClientID
and bs.CoverageBeginDate >= ba.EffectiveDate
and bs.CoverageBeginDate <= ba.ExpireDate
where cpc.Deleted = 0
and cpc.ClientID = @ClientID
) s on d.Deleted = 0
and d.ClientID = s.ClientID
and d.BillingAccountID = s.BillingAccountID
and d.BillingScheduleID = s.BillingScheduleID
when matched
and isNull(d.WithholdTypeID,-1) <> isNull(s.WithholdTypeID,-1)
then update
set WithholdTypeID = s.WithholdTypeID
, UpdateUser = @UpdateUser
, UpdateDate = @UpdateDate
when not matched then insert (
ClientID
, BillingAccountID
, BillingScheduleID
, WithholdTypeID
, CreateUser
, CreateDate
, Deleted
, CancelDate
) values (
s.ClientID
, s.BillingAccountID
, s.BillingScheduleID
, s.WithholdTypeID
, @UpdateUser
, @UpdateDate
, 0
, '9999-12-31'
)
;
I saw some people use "with upsert as", but my pgAdmin version(1.8) doesn't support it. Anyone has any ideas how to do merge in postgres?
Thanks.

Anyone has any ideas how to do merge in postgres?____ Actually, this feature is in active development and will hopefully make it into 9.5. In the meantime, take a look at Example 40-2 in the Trapping Errors section of the plpgsql docs for how you can do this today: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/interactive/plpgsql-control-structures.html#PLPGSQL-ERROR-TRAPPING -- Jim Nasby, Data Architect, Blue Treble Consulting Data in Trouble?

That can't be MySQL - MySQL does not have a MERGE statement. That looks much more like SQL Server's T-SQL (MERGE, @ style variables, convert() function...) Here are several ways to do it: http://stackoverflow.com/q/1109061/330315 > I saw some people use "with upsert as", but my pgAdmin version(1.8) doesn't support it. pgAdmin supports whatever your Postgres version supports. All supported/maintained Postgres versions support common table expressions. What exactly do you mean with "doesn't support it"? What was the exact SQL statement you tried?
