Hi ,

I have two update statements based on the exist and not exist clause. How can I combine the both in my update statement.

UPDATE #Billing_Holds
SET Original_or_Resubmittal_Type = 'RESUBMITTAL'
FROM #Billing_Holds bh
INNER JOIN Resubmittal br (nolock)
on bh.Last_Attempted_Billing_ID =br.Billing_ID
where exists (Select br.Billing_ID from Resubmittal br (nolock)
where bh.Last_Attempted_Billing_ID =br.Billing_ID)

UPDATE #Billing_Holds
SET Original_or_Resubmittal_Type = 'ORIGINAL'
FROM #Billing_Holds bh
INNER JOIN Resubmittal br (nolock)
on bh.Last_Attempted_Billing_ID =br.Billing_ID
where not exists (Select br.Billing_ID from Resubmittal br (nolock)
where bh.Last_Attempted_Billing_ID =br.Billing_ID)


Thank you,
Petronas

Why are you using NOLOCK when you are updateing data?

(I know that doesn't answer your question, but first things first)

Shot in the dark:
UPDATE 
    bh
SET 
    Original_or_Resubmittal_Type = 
        CASE 
            WHEN br.Billing_ID IS NOT NULL THEN 'RESUBMITTAL'
            ELSE 'ORIGINAL'
        END
FROM 
    #Billing_Holds AS bh
LEFT OUTER JOIN 
    Resubmittal AS br 
    on bh.Last_Attempted_Billing_ID = br.Billing_ID
If that doesn't work post your DDL, DML and Expected output:
