Hi Experts,
I am working in 6i. I have a datablock A.
DATA BLOCK A: concession, status, date(read only).
Requirement: If the status not in ('open','in process'), i want to assign sysdate to date column, otherwise, no sysdate assignment to date column. I am using below logic to achieve.
PRE-UPDATE TRIGGER:
IF :blockA.status not in ('open','in process') THEN
:blockA.date:=sysdate;
END IF;
But irrespective of above if condition, it's assigning sysdate to date column, could somebody help me why it's going wrong.
Kindly help.

Thanks for your replies. Below code is working for me.
if lower(:blocka.status) not in ('open','in process') then
:blocka.date := sysdate;
else
:blocka.date := null;
end if;
Thanks.
welcome,
i beleive it was due to logical error,
since the user once set the status to open or in process
and then afterwards change the status, and since upn change of status u were not setting the date column to null, hte old value remained there...
