Hi Andreas!

Well...

There are two tables that I need to get data from(dm.billables /
public.ja_mobiusers), and a third table (dm.billables_links) that I need to
insert data from those two tables.

The table dm.billables has four (important) columns:

*billable_id / customer_id / role_id / mobiuser_id*

I wanna add data there. The data is not there yet, so it's not an UPDATE.

*1 -* select the billable_id: (SELECT1)
SELECT billable_id FROM junk.wm_260_billables2 WHERE info ilike '%Alisha%'

*2 -* select the mobiuser_id: (SELECT2)
SELECT id FROM public.ja_mobiusers WHERE name_first LIKE 'Alisha%' AND
name_last LIKE 'Dadryl%'

*3 -* Insert those two data into the dm.billables_links table (EXAMPLE):
INSERT INTO dm.billables_links (billable_id, mobiuser_id) VALUES (SELECT1,
SELECT2);

CREATE TABLE
