Oracle PL/SQL - PL SQL SQL Statement SAVEPOINT Statement

Introduction

The SAVEPOINT statement marks the current point during transaction.

With savepoints you can roll back part of a transaction instead of the whole transaction.

The number of active savepoints for each session is unlimited.

The following code marks a savepoint before doing an insert.
