ROLLBACK
Stops the current transaction.
Synopsis
ROLLBACK [ WORK | TRANSACTION ]
Description
ROLLBACK rolls back the current transaction and causes all the updates made by the transaction to be discarded.
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
WORK TRANSACTION |
Optional keywords. They have no effect |
Notes
Use COMMIT to successfully end the current transaction.
Issuing ROLLBACK when not inside a transaction does no harm, but it will provoke a warning message.

ROLLBACK;
Compatibility
The SQL standard only specifies the two forms ROLLBACK and ROLLBACK WORK. Otherwise, this command is fully conforming.
