Re: Suggestion to improve query performance of data validation in proc.

Hi David,

Thanks for your feedback.

We are using the below kind of validation throughout the proc in multiple
locations and for validation we are using the below statements.

--check Data available or not for structure_id1
IF EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM schema.table_name WHERE
column1=structure_id1) THEN
is_exists1 :=true;
END IF;

We are looking for a better query than "*SELECT 1 FROM schema.table_name
WHERE column1=structure_id1*" this query for data validation.

Please suggest is there any other ways to validate this kind of queries
which will improve the overall performance.

Regards,
Postgann.
