update tblcase set merchandisetotal =
(
COALESCE(( SELECT sum(m.quantity::numeric * m.amount) AS merchandiseamount
FROM tblmerchandise m
WHERE m.caseid = tblcase.caseid AND m.clientnum::text =
tblcase.clientnum::text), 0.0)
)
I tried running the above and it wants to do a sum on all the records in
tblcase instead of just the one being updated, what am I doing wrong?
