原來一直沒註意，merge是可以支持delete，只不過必須的是on條件滿足，也就是要求系統支持邏輯刪除，而非物理刪除。

Using the DELETE Clause with MERGE Statements

You may want to cleanse tables while populating or updating them. To do this, you may want to consider using the DELETE clause in a MERGE statement, as in the following example:

MERGE USING Product_Changes S
INTO Products D ON (D.PROD_ID = S.PROD_ID)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET D.PROD_LIST_PRICE =S.PROD_NEW_PRICE, D.PROD_STATUS = S.PROD_NEWSTATUS
DELETE WHERE
 
 (D.PROD_STATUS = "OBSOLETE")
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (PROD_ID, PROD_LIST_PRICE, PROD_STATUS)
VALUES (S.PROD_ID, S.PROD_NEW_PRICE, S.PROD_NEW_STATUS);

Thus when a row is updated in products, Oracle checks the delete condition D.PROD_STATUS = "OBSOLETE", and deletes the row if the condition yields true.

The DELETE operation is not as same as that of a complete DELETE statement. Only the rows from the destination of the MERGE can be deleted. The only rows that are affected by the DELETE are the ones that are updated by this MERGE statement. Thus, although a given row of the destination table meets the delete condition, if it does not join under the ON
