Account and credit card numbers are stored in a database I hold. To ensure that I am just working with account numbers, I compare these to a file and update any card numbers to the account number.
I built a view connecting the table to the account/card database to return the Table ID and associated account number. Now I need to update the records where the ID and account number match.
The account number field in the Sales Import database needs to be modified.
| LeadID | 
AccountNumber | 
| 147 | 
5807811235 | 
| 150 | 
5807811326 | 
| 185 | 
7006100100007267039 | 
And this is the RetrieveAccountNumber table, where I need to update from:
| LeadID | 
AccountNumber | 
| 147 | 
7006100100007266957 | 
| 150 | 
7006100100007267039 | 
I tried the below, but no luck so far:
UPDATE [Sales_Lead].[dbo].[Sales_Import] 
SET    [AccountNumber] = (SELECT RetrieveAccountNumber.AccountNumber 
                          FROM   RetrieveAccountNumber 
                          WHERE  [Sales_Lead].[dbo].[Sales_Import]. LeadID = 
                                                RetrieveAccountNumber.LeadID) 
It updates the card numbers to account numbers, but the account numbers get replaced by NULL
