ROLLBACK WORK

Transact-SQL Reference

Transact-SQL Reference

ROLLBACK WORK

Rolls back a user-specified transaction to the beginning of a transaction.

Syntax

ROLLBACK [ WORK ]

Remarks

This statement functions identically to ROLLBACK TRANSACTION except that ROLLBACK TRANSACTION accepts a user-defined transaction name. With or without specifying the optional WORK keyword, this ROLLBACK syntax is SQL-92-compatible.

When nesting transactions, ROLLBACK WORK always rolls back to the outermost BEGIN TRANSACTION statement and decrements the @@TRANCOUNT system function to 0.

Permissions

ROLLBACK WORK permissions default to any valid user.
