Welcome to Stack Overflow. This should be rather simple. First lets generate 50K rows of sample data.



IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#things') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #things;

DECLARE @xml XML =
'<BillingTransactionInfo xmlns="http://xed.com/bc/gx.billsactioninfomodel">
<AccountingDate>2018-12-07T13:40:44</AccountingDate>
<AccountingDay>7</AccountingDay>
<AccountingMonth>12</AccountingMonth>
<AccountingYear>2018</AccountingYear>
<AccountNumber>PC:0049207</AccountNumber>
<AccountType>insured</AccountType>
<BillingReferenceNumber>50000018100</BillingReferenceNumber>
<CustomerName>JOHN MCGEE</CustomerName>
<GLMonth>12</GLMonth>
<GLYear>2018</GLYear>
<TransactionSubtypeCode>DirectBillMoneyReceivedTxn</TransactionSubtypeCode>

<IssueDate>2018-12-07T13:40:37</IssueDate>

<PolicyRiskState>AL</PolicyRiskState>
<ReasonCode>Direct Bill Money Received</ReasonCode>
<RecordCreationDate>2018-12-07T13:40:37</RecordCreationDate>
<Source>BILLING</Source>
<TransactionAmount>2570.77</TransactionAmount>
<TransactionCreateDate>2018-12-07T13:40:37</TransactionCreateDate>
</BillingTransactionInfo>';
SELECT TOP (50000)
id = IDENTITY(INT,1,1),
X = CAST(REPLACE(CAST(@xml AS VARCHAR(8000)),
'<TransactionAmount>2570.77</TransactionAmount>',
CONCAT('<TransactionAmount>',ABS(CHECKSUM(NEWID())%2250000)*.01,'</TransactionAmount>')) AS XML)
INTO #things
FROM sys.all_columns a, sys.all_columns b;


Solution:



SELECT id, tr.amt
FROM #things AS t
CROSS APPLY (VALUES(t.X.value(
'(/*:BillingTransactionInfo/*:TransactionAmount/text())[1]','DECIMAL(10,2)'))) AS tr(amt)
WHERE tr.amt > 15000;


Returns:



id          amt
----------- ------------
201 21876.97
202 21229.64
204 19188.62
209 21680.17
212 18603.47
213 20507.21
216 19536.31
218 19490.95
...


Updated to demonstrate how to modify the values to 10000 as per the OP's request.



UPDATE t
SET X.modify('
replace value of (/*:BillingTransactionInfo/*:TransactionAmount/text())[1]
with "10000"')
FROM #things AS t
CROSS APPLY (VALUES(t.X.value(
'(/*:BillingTransactionInfo/*:TransactionAmount/text())[1]','DECIMAL(10,2)'))) AS tr(amt)
WHERE tr.amt > 15000;

Your XML has got a default namespace. It is possible to use a wildcard (like *:ElementName), but it is recommended to declare namespaces.



Furthermore, the best way to filter for a value in cases, where you do not need that value is the native XML method .exist().



Try this:



WITH XMLNAMESPACES(DEFAULT('http://xed.com/bc/gx.billsactioninfomodel'))
UPDATE YourTable
SET TheXmlColumn.modify('replace value of (/BillingTransactionInfo/TransactionAmount/text())[1] with "12345"')
WHERE TheXmlColumn.exist('/BillingTransactionInfo[TransactionAmount > 15000]')=1;


You can read this as




  • Use the given default namespace, when there is no explicit namespace

  • Update your table and modify the XML in the stated way

  • But hit only rows where there exists a <BillingTransactionInfo> with a <TransactionAmount> higher then 15000.


Attention: Your sample does not look like this, but you must be sure, that your XML column will keep just one single <BillingTransactionInfo> as statet in your question!

    To find the rows which have TransactionAmount of more than 15000, something like this should work:



    SELECT * 
    FROM TableName
    WHERE ColumnWithXml.value('(/BillingTransactionInfo/TransactionAmount)[1]','int') > 15000


    Where TableName is the name of the table and ColumnWithXml is the name of the XML column (needs to be of type XML)



    To update those rows, something like this should work:



    UPDATE TableName
    SET ColumnWithXml.modify('replace value of
    (/BillingTransactionInfo/TransactionAmount)[1] with ("25000")')

    WHERE ColumnWithXml.value('(/BillingTransactionInfo/TransactionAmount)[1]','int') > 15000

      Your XML has got a default namespace. It is possible to use a wildcard (like *:ElementName), but it is recommended to declare namespaces.



      Furthermore, the best way to filter for a value in cases, where you do not need that value is the native XML method .exist().



      Try this:



      WITH XMLNAMESPACES(DEFAULT('http://xed.com/bc/gx.billsactioninfomodel'))
      UPDATE YourTable
      SET TheXmlColumn.modify('replace value of (/BillingTransactionInfo/TransactionAmount/text())[1] with "12345"')
      WHERE TheXmlColumn.exist('/BillingTransactionInfo[TransactionAmount > 15000]')=1;


      You can read this as




      • Use the given default namespace, when there is no explicit namespace

      • Update your table and modify the XML in the stated way

      • But hit only rows where there exists a <BillingTransactionInfo> with a <TransactionAmount> higher then 15000.


      Attention: Your sample does not look like this, but you must be sure, that your XML column will keep just one single <BillingTransactionInfo> as statet in your question!

              To find the rows which have TransactionAmount of more than 15000, something like this should work:



              SELECT * 
              FROM TableName
              WHERE ColumnWithXml.value('(/BillingTransactionInfo/TransactionAmount)[1]','int') > 15000


              Where TableName is the name of the table and ColumnWithXml is the name of the XML column (needs to be of type XML)



              To update those rows, something like this should work:



              UPDATE TableName
              SET ColumnWithXml.modify('replace value of
              (/BillingTransactionInfo/TransactionAmount)[1] with ("25000")')

              WHERE ColumnWithXml.value('(/BillingTransactionInfo/TransactionAmount)[1]','int') > 15000
