Usage Notes  

The BTEQ EXIT and QUIT commands are identical. For convenience in writing scripts, it might be preferred to use the EXIT command after a LOGOFF command and use QUIT if the LOGOFF command is not used.

The QUIT command cannot be used in a Teradata SQL macro.

The ERRORCODE value contains only the status of the last statement, even in a set of statements specified with the REPEAT command.

Example  

To terminate a program and exit BTEQ, type:

   .QUIT
