RE: help with an SQL to fix MAPICS file -- MAPICS-L

Michael,

I think this will work:
update amflibd/mbbfrep a set a.cuscl=
 (select b.cuscl from  amflibz/mbbfrep b where a.comno=b.comno and
a.cusno=b.cusno and
b.comno=11)
Where exists (select * from  amflibz/mbbfrep C where a.comno=C.comno and
a.cusno=C.cusno and
C.comno=11)

Subject: help with an SQL to fix MAPICS file

Hopefully someone on the MAPICS group knows SQL enough to help me debug
my 
problem:

I am having someone update Customer Class fields in our LIVE environment

to get the data correct.  We do not have the luxury of refreshing the
test 
environment frequently.   I prefer not to copy the MBBFREP from the live

environment (ZZ) to the test environment (ZD).   What I want to do is 
simply update MBBFREP (customer master) in the test environment with the

value of the CUSCL field from the live environment, ignoring all other 
fields and handling the possible differences between the files
(customers 
added or deleted in live or in test since the last refresh). 

HERE'S THE SQL I'm trying to use:

update amflibd/mbbfrep a set a.cuscl= 
 (select b.cuscl from  amflibz/mbbfrep b where a.comno=b.comno and 
a.cusno=b.cusno and 
b.comno=11) 

HERE'S THE ERROR I'm getting:

Null values not allowed in column or variable CUSCL.


I've tried adding exclusions in my where clause for when the CUSCL IS 
NULL, etc., but nothing I'm doing is working.  There are some records in

ZZ that have blank in the customer class field, but when I SQL to find 
those with NULL values, I get nothing -- as in no records seem to
contain 
NULL.   Am I doing somthing in my subquery that would cause the result 
rows to be empty?   Everything I've tried indicates there should be 
results.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
