IN AUTONOMOUS TRANSACTION

Executes a statement or a block of statements in an autonomous transaction

Syntax
IN AUTONOMOUS TRANSACTION DO <compound_statement>
Table 1. IN AUTONOMOUS TRANSACTION Statement Parameter
Argument Description

compound_statement

A single statement, or statements wrapped in BEGIN …​ END

The IN AUTONOMOUS TRANSACTION statement enables execution of a statement or a block of statements in an autonomous transaction.Code running in an autonomous transaction will be committed right after its successful execution, regardless of the status of its parent transaction.This can be used when certain operations must not be rolled back, even if an error occurs in the parent transaction.

An autonomous transaction has the same isolation level as its parent transaction.Any exception that is thrown in the block of the autonomous transaction code will result in the autonomous transaction being rolled back and all changes made will be undone.If the code executes successfully, the autonomous transaction will be committed.
