I have the following in a stored procedure:

UPDATE BM_CostedBOM
SET new_std_cost = (std_labor + std_burden + std_outplant)
WHERE pur_or_mfg = 'M'

The value for new_std_cost is always NULL. Any ideas?

One of your columns is NULL


UPDATE BM_CostedBOM
   SET new_std_cost = (ISNULL(std_labor,0) + ISNULL(std_burden,0) + ISNULL(std_outplant,0))
 WHERE pur_or_mfg = 'M'
