Re: How to Undo an SQL Insert

Just because your ERP doesn't use commitment control, doesn't mean a
process you've written can't use it.

Unless the file isn't journaled...

You have the data you inserterted, I assume there's a primary or unique key.

I'm working with a legacy transaction file from our ERP (i.e.
Commit=*none).
My SQLRPGLE service program procedure inserts two records/rows into the
file (they are complementary rows - both are necessary)

If the first insert fails, I simply exit the procedure with an error.

But I'm not sure how to handle the situation where the first insert is
successful, but the second insert fails. If this occurs, I need to remove
the row I successfully inserted.

Is there some way to capture the exact row I inserted successfully? Like
maybe the relative record number? Or am I out of luck here.

TIA,
