I have Table 1 : EMP as below
       ID   NAME             CITY             AMT        
       -------------------------------------------
        1   sajani           Bangalore        0          
        2   Prashanth        Bangalore        0          
        3   Jayvin           Bangalore        0     
Table 2: EMP1
ID NAME1 CITY1 AMT1 --------------------------------------------- 1 Sajani Bangalore 10 1 Sajani Bangalore 10 2 Prashanth Bangalore 10 3 Jayvin Bangalore 10
ID is the Key and is common in both the files. I want an Update SQL to update the amount field of Table 1 using Amount field of table 2, which gives the result as below.
Result:
       ID   NAME             CITY             AMT        
       --------------------------------------------
        1   sajani           Bangalore        20          
        2   Prashanth        Bangalore        10          
        3   Jayvin           Bangalore        10

Answer
One method is a correlated subquery:
update emp
    set amt = (select sum(e1.amt) from emp1 e1 where e1.id = emp.id);
You can check if the values match using:
update emp
    set amt = (select sum(e1.amt) from emp1 e1 where e1.id = emp.id);
    where amt <> (select sum(e1.amt) from emp1 e1 where e1.id = emp.id);
