Hi, Thanks Steven and Cameron. When I posted my message here, it was pretty much word of mouth from my team. I had not looked at code and neither did I have chance. But like you all said, when I went to look at code ,indeed one of the update as well as delete had bug in it.
update.... where id = someid <cfif varTest eq ""> and col2 = 'test' or col2 = '' Notice the OR condition without parenthesis. So, it was running for any condition matched because of that OR. So I did this update.... where id = someid <cfif varTest eq ""> and ( col2 = 'test' or col2 = '' ) That fixed the problem.
