 Question # 01
(a) Insert following records by creating corresponding tables in your database.
(b) Apply merge and update some records which exist. Also insert some new record using
Merge.

Answer:01:
1. Creating Table of Customer_T, Order_Line_T, PRODUCT_T and Inserting Values.

CREATE TABLE
customer_T(
custoner_id NUMBER(02),
Customer_Name
VARCHAR(15),
Customer_Address
VARCHAR(15),
City Char(20),
State Char(20),
Postal_code Integer
);

ALTER TABLE customer_T

Modify(Customer_Name VARCHAR(50));

-- multiple insertion

INSERT INTO customer_t(custoner_id,customer_name,customer_address,city,state,postal_code)

VALUES (&Customer_ID, '&Customer_Name', '&Customer_Address', '&City', '&State',
&Postal_Code);

CREATE TABLE Order_Line_T(

order_id number,
product_id number,
order_quantity number);
-- multiple insertion
insert into
Order_Line_T ( order_id,product_id,order_quantity)
values (&order_id,&product_id,&order_quantity);

select * from Order_Line_T;

CREATE TABLE PRODUCT_T(

product_id number,
product_description varchar(20),
product_finish char(10),
standard_price number,
product_line_id number);

insert into PRODUCT_T (product_id,

product_description, product_finish, standard_price, product_line_id )
values (&product_id,'&product_description','&product_finish',&standard_price,&product_line_id);
select * from PRODUCT_T;

2. Updating existing record of Product_T

MERGE INTO PRODUCT_T p
USING (
SELECT 4 as product_id,
'Entertainment Center' as
product_description,
'White Ash' as product_finish,
620 as standard_price,
3 as product_line_id
FROM dual
UNION ALL
SELECT 5,
'Writer''s Desk',
'Cherry',
320,
1
FROM dual
) new_data ON (p.product_id = new_data.product_id)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET p.product_description = new_data.product_description,
p.product_finish = new_data.product_finish,
p.standard_price = new_data.standard_price,
p.product_line_id = new_data.product_line_id;

3. Inserting new record of Product_T

MERGE INTO PRODUCT_T p
USING (
SELECT 7 as product_id, 'Bookshelf' as product_description, 'Oak' as product_finish, 200 as
standard_price, 2 as product_line_id FROM dual
UNION ALL
SELECT 8, 'Dining Table', 'Mahogany', 800, 3 FROM dual
) new_data
ON (p.product_id = new_data.product_id)
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (product_id, product_description, product_finish, standard_price, product_line_id)
VALUES (new_data.product_id, new_data.product_description, new_data.product_finish,
new_data.standard_price, new_data.product_line_id);

Explanation:

1. Merge Operation on Product_T:

We're conducting a merge operation on the table ‘Product_T’ which involves updating existing
rows or inserting new ones. The operation is guided by new data (`new_data`).
2. Specifying Source Data:
The `new_data` originates from a subquery, which selects values from a source, such as
another table or predefined values.
3. Matching Condition:
We specify how to match rows from the source data (`new_data`) with rows in the
‘Product_T’ table, using the `product_id` column.
4. Update Action (When Matced):
When a match is found based on the ` product_id `, we update the existing row in
‘product_id’ with the values from `new_data`.
5. Insert Action (When Not Matched):
If no match is found based on the ‘product_id’ , we insert a new row into the ‘Product_T’ table
using the values from `new_data`.
Each operation updates or inserts rows into the `PRODUCT_T` table based on matching or
non-matching rows with the source data (`new_data`). Each merge operation operates
independently on its respective table.
