Re: UPDATE tuples with a sub-select

What about:

UPDATE report_table SET order_count = s_count, order_value = s_value
FROM (SELECT count(*) AS s_count, sum(amount) AS s_value FROM order o
    WHERE o.customer_id = report_table.customer_id)

Its untested, but I think, it must works like this.

Interesting idea (coming from Oracle I'm just not used to the FROM clause for UPDATE :) )

But unfortunately it gives an error: ERROR: subquery in FROM cannot refer to other relations of same query level [SQL State=42P10]

Ok, its a little bit more complicated:

UPDATE report_table SET order_count = s_count, order_value = s_value
    FROM (SELECT customer_id, count(*) AS s_count, sum(amount) AS s_value
        FROM order o GROUP BY customer_id) AS summary
    WHERE summary.customer_id = report_table.customer_id)


Cool! Thanks a lot

Thomas
