Solution 1

You don't need to, or want to - you'd be duplicating info, and it would be liable to error should a manager leave and be replaced for example.
Instead, use a JOIN when you SELECT the rows:

SQL

SELECT a.ID, a.Name, a.ManagerID, b.Name AS ManagerName FROM Managers a
JOIN Managers b ON a.ManagerID = b.ID

My question is how to update ManagerName column not a select query?

OriginalGriff 19-Sep-17 14:00pm

And I'm telling you that it's the wrong thing to do: it wastes space and is prone to inaccuracy. Storing data in multiple places is a mistake.

Using a select is a much better solution as the result is always correct.

Solution 2

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.SpUpdateManager
    @id int = 0,
    @managerName int  
AS
begin
update TableName set ManagerName=@managerName where id  = @id
end
