fyi, I upgraded postgres in AWS to 11.1 and the merge function for procedure is still not working. Still complained the same error that:
ERROR: "ecisdrdm.application_cdim" is not a known variable
LINE 14: MERGE INTO ecisdrdm.application_cdim prod
^
SQL state: 42601
Character: 348

Postgres has had stored functions for ages, but only added stored procedures in version 11.

The change you're referring to is that a stored procedure (but not a function) has the ability to manage its own transaction blocks.
I actually have no clue...I've only read about the new stored procedures. But if you're coming from Oracle, you're likely looking for PG 11 stored procedures, at least some of the time.
